Answering this week's Top 5 Sleep Questions. This week’s questions highlight the following topics:

Do you have tips for longer naps? My 6 month old constantly wakes after 45 minutes

Is there anything you can do for newborn sleep to make it better? Or are they just too young?

My 10 week old is a velcro baby - I love the snuggles, but when can I start doing sleep coaching and looking for him to self settle?

My 20 month old wakes up around 6am, naps from 12-2pm, and goes to bed at around 7-7:30pm, but always takes around 30 minutes of tossing and turning and talking to go to sleep. Should I adjust his schedule?

My 3 year old has frequent night terrors - how do I help it and also how do I avoid it? 



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!
