Sleep Cues: The Everything Parenting Podcast
Q&A: Capping the Nap, Wake Windows, Sleeping With A Pacifier & More!
Answering this week's Top 5 Sleep Questions. This week’s questions highlight the following topics:
- Do you cap the nap of a 19 month old? If so, at what time or how long?
- What is the best bedtime for a 2 year old? He naps for 2 hours and usually wakes up for the day around 6am.
- My 7 month old has wake windows of 2 hours before nap 1, and then 2 hours 15 mins leading up to his other naps and bedtime. He’s starting to take longer to fall asleep. Do you have suggested schedule changes? Is he ready for a 2 nap day?
- My three month old struggles to fall asleep without the soother, and also struggles to keep the soother in. Do you have any advice?
- Is rocking and feeding to sleep ever ok? I have a 12 week old and naps are getting tougher, especially in the afternoon!
Don’t need step-by-step sleep coaching, but need advice on age-specific awake times, milestones, regressions, scheduling tweaks, and more? Our Sleep Guides have you covered!
