Sleep Detectives: Teething, Daycare Naps and Cot Climbers

Happy Sleep Detectives Day to all who celebrate! We open the Nap Trapped question box and answer your real-life baby sleep questions, from mum versus dad at bedtime to a 23 month old who's started climbing out of the cot. And a mum from our Spotify comments wrote back to tell us her twelve month old has slept through the night two nights straight, one and a half weeks into night weaning and modified Ferber. Case solved. Case closed.

What You'll Learn:

- Why babies settle differently for mum and dad and how to get both of you confidently resettling

- How to avoid feeding to resettle when it isn't feed time

- When we start waking babies from naps and why a consistent 7am start matters so much

- Why we move a one year old off wake windows and onto a clock-based schedule

- How to handle daycare naps and extra night wakes in those first few weeks

- How much teething really disrupts sleep and how to tell teething from habit or regression

- How long to stay on the transitional schedule and why early rising is rarely a sign to drop a nap

- How to hold onto three naps at seven months and whether settling time gets added onto a capped nap

- What to try before you move a cot climber into a big bed
