Is your baby sleeping enough or too much?

Are you constantly worried that your baby is getting enough sleep or is it sleeping too much? Don’t worry we have got you covered with the baby sleep schedule that will help you understand your baby’s sleep and help you sleep better.

Firstly, you should always rest when your baby is resting.

Secondly, observe your baby’s sleep pattern and remember every baby is different.

But here is a blueprint that can help you create a systematic sleep schedule for baby

Sleep Schedule for Baby

Every parent wants their infants to sleep well. But most of them don’t know—but want to know—the basics: 

How long will my baby nap? 

What time should they go to bed? 

How many hours of overnight sleep can I realistically expect? 

How does a baby’s sleep schedule change over time?

We all are aware that our new baby will not be sleeping a lot during the first few weeks. Although what we don’t know is that once the baby is a week old, the sleep cycle improves gradually yet not consistently. Not so fast! The reality for many well if not most for babies is a bit of a roller coaster with happy victories alternating with frustrating regressions!

Since that’s out on the table here is the listing you can sensibly expect for your baby’s sleep… (Again, every baby is unique and sleep schedules may work very differently)

Baby Sleep Schedule for Birth to 2 Month

Overall Sleep:  During the first months, babies sleep in snippets, expect 14 to 18 hours a day. With waking up throughout the day to feed. In the early weeks, you can expect your little prince and princess to fuss from hunger 10 to 12 times a day.

The day starts… usually at 7 a.m.

Napping:  The little snoozers will wake up every hour or two and then nap for the same time again for the first 4 weeks. During week 5-8 if your baby is sleeping for like 1.5 to 2 hours, it’s actually a good idea to wake him up for feeding. Babies that eat less during the day tend to be hungrier at night time and disturbs the sleep of both.

Sleep at Night…starts around 10 pm. Your baby will drift on and off through the night, punctuated by occasional feedings. The longest stretch of zzz’s usually goes up to 4 hours in the first month and 4 to 8 hours by 2 months of age.

Also…if the baby isn’t sleeping it is always a good idea to put the baby in the cradle, you can always swing the baby for some time and if you want to relax for some time you can always use an automatic baby cradle by tinytyke it comes with a bunch of features like Bluetooth and mobile app so you can easily control from your bed.

Baby Sleep Schedule for 2 to 4 Month

Overall sleep: 13-14 hours of napping on and off.

The day starts… a little early now. Most babies wake around 6 am at this age.

Napping: Your baby will gradually shift to 2-3 naps daily, totaling 4-8 hours of sleep.

Nighttime sleep…starts a bit early, with your baby going down around 9 pm. They’ll also sleep longer, still waking up if hungry up to a couple of times. The longest unbroken sleep is usually around 5-8 hours (some may sleep an even longer stretch, especially if you use a sleep aid, like baby rocks by tinytyke (automatic baby cradle)).

Baby Sleep Schedule for 4 – 8 Month

overall sleep:  Now the baby is 4-month-old, now you can expect 12-14 hours a day.

The day starts… 6-8 am, this of course differs from baby to baby.

Napping: approximately 3-5 hours a day with 2-3 naps.

Nighttime sleep…  Your baby might sleep 6-10 hours in one go and enjoy it, which might start around 7-9 pm, which usually everyone calls “sleeping through the night!”

Heads up: Usually during the 4th month to 6th month the teething starts, again the gum pain might make the baby fussier and also break sleep.

Baby Sleep Schedule for 8 – 12 Month

Overall sleep:  Well your little one is growing up now, when they are 8th month old they might now sleep 12 to 14 hours a day.

The day starts… about 6 to 7 am.

Napping:  Yes, you guessed it right still 2 to 3 times a day.

Nighttime sleep…starts around 7 to 9 pm now. Your baby’s longest stretch is likely a glorious 7-10 hours at night!

Sleep Schedule for a 12 Month Baby (Happy Birthday!!!)

Overall sleep: Hooray!!! 12 to 14 hours in a day’s cycle.

The day starts… at 6 to 7 am

Napping: 2 naps, total 2 to 4 hours daily.

Nighttime sleep: usually starts earlier, with your baby hitting the hay between 7-9 pm. Early enough for mom and dad to get some alone time! The longest sleeping stretch usually averages 7 to 10 hours at night. 

Final Thoughts on Baby Sleep Schedules

Every baby is different, so your little one’s schedule might vary slightly from the ones outlined above but if you’re equipped with the right information and resources, you should be snoozing sweetly in no time!
