how to get your infant to sleep through the night
Put your baby in his crib, say good night, and leave the room. If he starts to cry, let himâfor about 5 minutes. Then go into the room, comfort him briefly without picking him up, and leave. If he cries again, wait 10 minutes before going in, then 15 minutes, until he falls asleep. The point of going in is to reassure your baby that you still exist and to reassure you that he's okay. 2. Repeat the ritualâwith the same timed intervals used at his bedtimeâevery time he wakes in the night.
