Episode 41: Sleep At The 12 Month Stage

Baby Remi is 12 months old and going through big changes with his sleep. 

He slept through from around 7 months old until he recently started nursery and his sleep changed. 

He’s now finding it hard to settle to sleep at bedtime and frequently has a split night AKA parent party. This is understandably causing everyone a sleepless night!

I’m never going to stop sharing the message that infant sleep isn’t a straight-line process because it’s a constant work in progress!

So I want to reassure you that your baby isn’t broken and you aren’t doing anything wrong if your baby’s:

  • Sleep changes or hits the skids suddenly

  • Finding it harder to settle to sleep or needs more support to fall asleep

  • Having a parent party at night!

However, if their sleep or wake ups are unsustainable or simply not working for you chances are there’s some small and caring changes that could make a big difference. 

Join me and Remi’s Mum, Amy for this live consultation podcast and together we’ll talk you through:

  • Normal infant sleep at 12 months old

  • Napping at nursery 

  • Different routine in different places

  • How an early bedtime can impact night sleep

  • Supporting them to settle to sleep independently 

  • Split nights AKA parent party

  • Remi’s sleep story at 12 months old

  • Remi’s sleep suggestions to support him to a more settled night sleep. The caring way. 

Amy and I had a great talk together and I really hope you find this episode useful and reassuring too!
