won’t resettle, feed one side or half a bottle and try
to settle back to sleep until 7:00 AM. If she won’t go
back to sleep, move the Morning Nap forward to 2
1⁄4 hrs after she woke, and allow her to sleep until
the normal wake up time of the Morning Nap. Do
the Breakfast Milk Feed before the Morning Nap.

6:30-7:00 AM
If she wakes after 6:30 AM get her up for the day if
crying or hungry, otherwise leave in bed if happy and
keep her Morning Nap at 9:15/9:30 AM.
If the Lunch Nap is going wrong and you can rule out
hunger, try cutting the Morning Nap to 30/40
minutes rather than 45.

Woke 12:15-1:15 PM
If your baby does wake during the Lunch Nap
(between 12:15 - 1:15 PM) and you have given two
feeds before the nap, allow 15 minutes to self-settle
back to sleep as long as she’s not crying up.
Woke 1:15-2:15PM
If your baby slept well in the Lunch Nap but woke
early (between 1:15-2:15 PM), for example at 2:00
PM instead of 2:15 PM, then the normal Afternoon
Nap will start 2 1⁄2 hrs from when she woke, but
ideally finishing at 5:00 PM, therefore giving her a
catch up.

Make sure you wake her from her Lunch Nap at 2:30
PM at the latest to ensure an Afternoon Nap. If your
baby isn't wanting to take an Afternoon Nap you can
try waking from
the Lunch Nap at 2:15 PM to get a short nap in
before 5:00 PM, but do not let them sleep past 5:00
PM if you want them to go to bed at 7:00 PM. Make
sure you do not let them sleep longer than the total
daytime sleep hours for their age.

Overnight
If you are doing a Dream Feed, your baby might
sleep through till 6:30-7:00 AM, however, some
babies may still need another feed overnight until
they are established on solids. A good indication
whether your baby needs a feed or not is if she is
not interested in feeding at the Breakfast Feed after
feeding in the night.
