@littleonesbabysleep: Your bedtime routine might not be the problem 👀 You can do the bath. Dim the lights. Read the book. Play the lullaby. Give the final feed. Follow the exact same calming routine every single night... And still have a baby who fights bedtime. Why? Because bedtime doesn’t exist in isolation. Your baby arrives at bedtime carrying their whole day with them. Their naps, how long they slept, how long they were awake between sleeps, when that last nap ended and how much sleep pressure has built by bedtime. A beautiful bedtime routine can help signal that sleep is coming, but it can’t always compensate for a day that hasn’t quite lined up. So if bedtime has suddenly become a battle, before you change the routine, look backwards 👈 What happened during the day? Sometimes the smallest adjustment to a nap or wake window is the thing that transforms bedtime, and often, the night that follows. That’s exactly why our Little Ones sleep app looks at sleep as a 24-hour picture, helping you get the timing right throughout the day, so bedtime and nights have the best chance of falling into place. Because better nights often start long before bedtime🌙 Tell me in the comments - how is bedtime going in your house?
