SETTLING APPROACH is the 3rd factor that influences night waking ⬇️

🥺 Some babies & toddlers are very sensitive to falling asleep in one place (your arms) and waking in another (their cot) - and they'll wake constantly needing support to fall back asleep.

💖 The key to minimising this type of night waking? Settle your baby where you intend for them to sleep for the entire night.

The SECOND factor that influences night waking is: DAILY RHYTHM! Without the daily rhythm being properly catered to, progress with minimising night wakes will ALWAYS be lost.

👉🏽 This is the most common reason parents report making temporary progress before nights inevitably fall apart again.

😓 Failure to cater to unique sleep needs is also the most common reason sleep difficulties can persist for months or even years.

3 key factors influence night waking, let's unpack the first: MOTIVATING FACTORS!

A midnight snack? Screen time at 2am? Stories at 4am? If your baby or toddler wakes for long stretches in the night you might have started to offer screens/snacks/stories, or more, hoping for your little one to quickly (and quietly) return to sleep (no judgement here).

Problems with persistent night waking can arise when your little one anticipates these middle of the night treats and continues to wake up expecting them.

In episode 98 of Brand New Little People, Dr Fallon & Dr Laura (PhDs, Sleep Practitioners) unpack the 3 factors that impact night waking, so you are your little one can enjoy restful nights.

Plus we have an exciting announcement to make about a new feature coming soon to our Sombelle Sleep Clinic programs.

Confusional arousals are similar to night terrors but without the fear. Your child won't respond normally when you try to talk to them. They might seem irritated or annoyed, and won't want your comfort.

For a quick resolution, stay hands-off and observe - confusional arousals typically resolve in a few minutes.

☺️ The smell and feel of your baby or toddler’s cot sheets, are important sleep associations or factors that help them drift off to sleep.

🗽 During travel there are lots of changing and unfamiliar factors, but if your little one’s portacot has the same sheets as their cot at home then it smells and feels familiar.

☀️ They’ll be more likely to settle easily and sleep well during your trip.

Bon voyage! ✈️
