Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Daytime Sleep
When at nursery my 11mth daughter only sleeps 45minutes at lunchtime. This makes her overtired and hard to settle some evenings My daughter has been a perfect contented baby since birth and followed all your books. Any problems that have arisen have been solved by reading on of your guides.When I returned to full time work when my daughter was six and a half months old she settled well into her nursery and continues to enjoy being there. The nursery is a local SureStart nursery and is very friendly and definitley the best in the area, I wouldn’t have been happy sending her to any of the other nurseries. It…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Daytime Sleep
At what age can a 10 month baby drop the morning nap? My 10mth old baby has started to fight his morning sleep and I would appreciate guidance on what age he can drop it. He currently wakes about 7 – 7.30am and I put him down about 9.45am (I’ve pushed the routine back by 30 minutes). Some days he’ll cry for 10mins and sleep and other days he will not settle unless I rock him to sleep on me. As I want to put him down for his lunchtime sleep about 1pm (to fit in with play group pick up) I haven’t let him go all morning without a…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Settling/Sleep Associations
My 9.5mth son has started to scream when put down in his cot and is waking in the night, unable to settle again My son for the last two weeks has been crying and screaming every time I put him in his cot. He has moaned in the past but settled himself. Only on occasions would I need to go in to quieten him by turning him on his side, readjusting blankets and then leave. He has never been a crying baby and to now have him screaming with tears and sobbing is distressing. It started with one or two naps (can’t remember exactly which ones) and now it’s every…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Settling/Sleep Associations
I am concerned how my 10mth daughter will cope with her daytime naps when we are on holiday My 10mth daughter loves the routines and has slept through the night since a very young age. She is a very contented baby through the day. The problem I have is that she will not easily fall asleep in my arms or in the pushchair, although she will sleep in the car. We are going on holiday soon and I am worrying how I am going to get her to sleep during the day. The flight is only 4 hours but the whole journey will take all day. In the past when…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Early Morning Waking
My 10mth son is waking early in the morning and will only go back to sleep if I offer him a feed My son is now just over 10 months old. We introduced the CLB routine when he was 3 months and it worked beautifully for us, and has done until recently. Since he was 8 or 9 months old, he’s been waking early, and it seems to be getting earlier and earlier. He was consistently sleeping until 7am until that point. I have ruled out every possible cause of the early waking – his room is blacked out completely, he gets plenty to eat and eats according to the…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Early Morning Waking
One of my 10.5mth twins has begun to wake early in the morning and disturb his brother My 10.5mth twins were born at 34 weeks. We have attempted to put them on the CLB routine – bearing in mind their prematurity – but have adjusted it from 6am to 6pm to fit in with the time my husband gets up to go to work. One twin is consistently waking between 4am and 5.30am. Which is obviously too early for any of us and it wakes his twin brother. He has always woken earlier than we would have chosen but used to get to 5.30am regularly, now it is nearer 4.30am.…

What can I do to get my 9.2 month old waking nearer to 7am again? My 9.2-month-old daughter has been sleeping 7pm to 7 or 7.30am since she was 10 weeks old. Just recently though she started waking at 6.30am and now she is waking every morning at 6am which is making her very tired in the mornings, until she’s had her early nap. I don’t usually pick her up until 7am or so and then I give her breakfast straightaway. Can you suggest anything that could help with the early morning waking? At present she naps 8.30-9.15am, 12.30-2.00pm and 3-3.45pm. Early morning waking can start to become a problem…

Sleeping FAQ: 9-12 Months – Night Waking
My 11mth son has begun to wake in the night and wants to play and needs milk before settling again My 11-month-old son has slept through since I began the routine when he was 2 months old. He has always seemed very happy in the routine. However since last week he has been waking up at night and wants to play. He will not go to sleep until I give him some milk and on some days even this doesn’t work. I have increased his solid intake and have cut down his daytime sleep to 10 minutes in the morning and 1 1/2 hours at lunch but this still has…
