My baby slept 8-hours straight for the first time!
My baby boy just turned 4 months and as his way of celebrating his 4th month, he literally slept for 8 hours straight! I know all babies are different but just sharing what we did for the past months so I could maybe help other moms here!
Establish a good sleeping routine. Ever since he was born, we made sure to track his sleeping schedule. No more than 2 hours of nap time, and no more than 2 hours of waking time.
Establish a CONSISTENT bed time routine. Our routine is bath time, nurse, and sleep. We do this every single night at the exact same time whether he feels sleepy or not.
As much as possible, be home for bed time.
All sleeping time is done on the crib. If he wakes up, we pat and feed, then lay on crib again. We rarely do contact napping (unless it's the weekend and mommy feels clingy)
Swaddle, white noise, very dark room
That's it!! Happy 4 months to our little baby!
