How do I adjust the routines for my twins of 7.5mths so they are waking at 7.30am? My twins are 7.5 months old now and they are sleeping until 7am with only 90 ml at 10 pm which I will decrease to 60 ml and drop all together in the next couple of weeks. We’re following the routine for 6-9 months. They eat different varieties of vegetables, fruits, cereal and protein. They still have milk at 7.15am, 11.45am, 2.45 pm, 6.30 pm and around 90 ml at 10 pm. My question is about the timings of the routine. I’d like them to wake up around 7.30am. In your books and…

I am having problems putting my nearly 7 month old baby to sleep in the evenings My baby who is almost 7 months has been following the routines for 3 weeks. I have almost got him doing the day time routines, but have tried bathing him at 5 30 pm and bottle at 6pm but he still falls asleep before he has taken half of his feed. I therefore have to wake him to finish his bottle. Then he is awake so when I try to put him down in his cot and he then screams until 9pm. Occasionally I have given in and rocked him to sleep. Sometimes he…

My 6.5mth daughter has always needed help in getting to sleep. She has now started to wake every 2-3hours throughout the night and is unable to resettle herself Until about a week ago my 6.5month daughter slept through the night from about 6:45pm through to 6:30am. She has always needed to be put to sleep and finds it very difficult to resettle herself. This is not through the want of trying. Now she goes down at about 7pm and then wakes up 2-3 hours later screaming, we go in to check on her, reassure her and she goes to sleep again, this then repeats every two hours all night until…

How do I get my six-month old son used to sleeping in a cot in his own room?  He cries the minute that I put him in his cot, and it can take up to an hour to settle him to sleep.  He then wakes up crying within 45 minutes to an hour.  I go to him, almost immediately, and start first of all by putting his dummy in. If this doesn’t work I then offer him a bottle of milk.  If this doesn’t work I usually resort to picking him up and rocking him to sleep. However, he will wake up again quite soon and sometimes as soon as I put him back…

My baby son, aged 7 months, is following the CLB routines really well and is sleeping and feeding at the recommended times, but he is still crying down for 5-10 minutes before each sleep. We have tried introducing some books at bedtime and a lullaby light, but these just seemed to make him more excitable. As yet, my husband and I have not had a night out together, as we are reluctant to leave him with a babysitter. My mother has offered to babysit but has made it clear that she will not leave him to cry for more than a few minutes. Do you think that the crying down…
