Hey, welcome back to Privy Lyons podcast. This is Sarah today. We're bringing back our sleep guru, you know, he from Nested Restis' sleep. You guys know her, you love her. She helped you survive newborn stage. So let's hit three to four months now small disclaimer so

if you're pregnant we want you to go back to the newborn episode listen to

that one first check out her, read her free resources for you guys so that you can get the progress that we're talking about from newborn to three to four, just like our babies grow their sleep needs change and we got to meet them where they're at. So you know how let's go.

Yeah, thank you so much. So three to four months is such a sensitive age like Sarah said and we want to focus on your questions the struggles you're going through and mainly the four month regression that we all dread right because it catches us parents off guard.

We're like, what is this? My baby was sleeping like perfectly having two hour now then all of a sudden what is going on here.

That you out of nowhere. And so when we pulled our Pretty Lance moms and our podcast

Instagram followers, they came some great questions. previous

as moms moms and our podcast Instagram followers, they came some great questions, so I'll just start from the top.

And I think this is something everybody kind of wants, right?

Was the typical schedule for this age range?

Because they're like, we survive survive newborn now we need some normalcy in our life here.

Yeah and if you haven't started with a routine, a schedule,

this is honestly the perfect time to come up with using a schedule that works for your baby, your family, right?

In the newborn stage, if you listen to that podcast, I said, have a schedule right well right now let's get the

schedule going get some consistency going and a typical schedule for a three to four month old. They may be on three to four naps depending on where they are developmentally. Some may be okay with three naps, some may be okay with four naps. some may be okay with four naps, some may need five, you know, meet your baby where they are,

still keeping those awake windows in mind. So we want to focus on making sure your baby wakes up

consistently. Yeah, I can't talk this morning. Around the same time. So within 20 to 30 minutes of a typical wake up.

So for example, if your baby wakes up at around 730,

then try to stay within 7 to 8 a.m. as a normal wake-up time. So don't let them sleep past 8, even if they had a rough night. Okay? I know I get this a lot. I was like, oh, the baby was up for hours at night. I just let them sleep until 10. Well, then your routine and the day is going to be all over the place.

Right?

So you're kind of doing more harm than good there.

And I get it, we just don't know, right?
