Sleep Detectives: Dicky Schedules, 30 Minute Naps and Pram Timing
Notes de l’épisode
Sleepy D's is back and we hear you. Well, we heard all two comments, and who are we to deny you? This week we're on the case with four of your questions. We've got a few A plus listeners in the mix.
Isabella's nearly 14 month old self settles on a 10 to 10.30 and 2 to 3.30 nap schedule but has started waking at 6am. Bec explains why we put the one to three nap where we do, because we're future proofing you. Sally looks at the wake window into a 7pm bed. Then the question everyone asks: if he falls asleep at 10.15, do you wake him at 10.30?
Adrian's 11 month old sleeps 11 to 12 hours but is stuck on a 6pm bed and a 5 to 6.30 wake. She doesn't call it early rising. She knows she's in a dicky schedule. Bec makes the case for the transitional schedule at 11 months and Sally walks through rescuing the nap, then nap training the second half. Midway through, breaking news lands from Camp Snooze.
Emma's 10 week old won't nap past 30 minutes and nights have gone from almost sleeping through to waking every half an hour. We talk swaddles, three hourly feeds, a properly dark room and why one sleep cycle is totally enough at this age. And Talia asks about pushing the pram early for that third nap at six months.
