To Sleep Train A Baby Or Not To Sleep Train?

Sleep training might not be for everybody. Some recommendations state that you shouldn’t sleep train a baby under six months old as it takes anywhere from three to six months to establish their natural circadian rhythm. Caregivers should also explore if there is an underlying issue that needs to be addressed (such as colic or reflux).

Though, in the baby world of sleep, what we might consider a “problem” might actually be quite normal as babies’ sleep cycles are different to ours. Adult sleep cycles range anywhere from 90 to 120 minutes, while for babies, these can last around 50 minutes. The Sleep Foundation points out that children should be sleeping soundly through the night in cycles of 90 to 100 minutes by the time they reach school age. So we only have to worry about the lack of Zs for the first four years of their life? Easy! (Sorry, did we say “easy”? We meant “erm…nope”.)

The question might also arise as to whether or not “training” a baby to sleep is the right way to go, though try saying this to an extremely sleep-deprived parent and you might end up wearing their coffee! But things are changing in the baby sleep training world. The International Association Of Child Sleep Consultants (IACSC), for example, has made it their mission to regulate sleep coach qualifications by setting high standards towards training and certification, complete with a code of ethics.

Other Child And Baby Sleep Solutions

It’s worth speaking to the hospital where you delivered as they might also be able to recommend professional help. You might also want to invest in a night light, white noise machine (or try this app!), lullaby playing soft toy (or a combination of all three!) that can help your little one to self-settle if waking through the night.

The popular Tommee Tippee Ollie The Owl Rechargeable Light and Sound Sleep Aid can automatically play 20 minutes of self-settling tunes if the sensor hears your baby crying. Or perhaps try the Skip Hop Baby Sound Machine: Moonlight & Melodies Nightlight Soother which not only has lullabies, nature sounds and a soft glowing night light, but a starry night projection as well. Good luck Mama, just never forget that you’re not alone – we’re in this together!
