Wake windows are the period of time your baby is awake, between the times they are sleeping. Wake windows start once your baby is awake and end when they fall asleep. So yes, they include feeding and nap/bedtime routine! 🍼😴
Following age-appropriate wake windows can be a great way to help you know when your little one should be going down for a nap or bedtime. However, it is important to remember that every baby is different, and some babies need more or less sleep than others.
This is why I recommend using age-appropriate wake windows as a guide, and in conjunction with sleepy cues, in order for you to know when YOUR baby’s optimal wake windows and nap/bedtime is. 💕
How close are your baby’s optimal wake windows to the average? Let me know in the comments!
