— 5 month old struggles to make it to a 2 hour wake window, showing signs of tiredness at 1.5 hours. Thoughts?
— When sleep training, if baby wakes up from a nap crying, should we go get her up right away or wait?
— My almost 9 month old is having early wakes. Her wake windows right now are 2.5 to the first nap, then three hours to nap 2 and bedtime. It’s often a stretch to get even to 6pm for bedtime though because her day starts so early! Help!
— 6 month old always wakes after half an hour then needs multiple soothings from me before finally settling. How can I get her napping longer?
