Struggling to get your little one to settle? Try these seven sleep tricks that new mums swear by:
You may have read hundreds of books on baby sleep, but sometimes the advice that actually works comes from other mums – take your pick from the following...‘I always sang Love Me Tender by Elvis to Harry. After I put him down, I’d hum it by the cot and continue until I made my escape. He was sleeping through at 18 weeks and, if he ever woke, I’d do the same and he’d instantly settle.’‘Maisie would wail when put in her crib, but was happy to go down after a night feed.
’‘Once Sacha was 14 weeks, my health visitor advised me to dilute his 4am feed with water as he was a good weight. She said he’d quickly drop it, especially as he was having a “dream” feed at 11pm. After a week of taking his diluted feed, he stopped waking up for it.’‘If your baby sleeps 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there throughout the day, he won’t think anything of doing the same at night. Make sure he has an extended sleep in the day to help him to sleep for a longer period at night.
