How To Sleep Train One Year Old?


If you're like most parents, you probably didn't get much sleep when your baby was first born. And now that your little one is a year old, you may be wondering how to get them to sleep through the night. Here are a few tips to help you sleep train your one year old:

1. Establish a bedtime routine.


One of the best ways to help your child (and you!) get a good night's sleep is to establish a bedtime routine. This might include giving them a bath, reading them a story, and singing a lullaby. Doing the same thing every night will help signal to your child that it's time to go to sleep.

2. Put them to bed drowsy but awake.


It's important that you put your child to bed when they're still awake. This will help them learn to fall asleep on their own. If they're already asleep when you put them in their crib, they may wake up when you leave the room and have trouble falling back asleep.

3. Don't let them get Up!

Once you've put your child in their crib, it's important that you don't let them get back out. If they cry or protest, it's okay to comfort them verbally, but don't pick them up or let them out of their crib. This will only prolong the process and make it harder for them to learn to fall asleep on their own.

4. Be consistent.


If you want your child to learn how to sleep through the night, you need to be consistent with your approach. That means no nap time naps, no late nights, and no exceptions to the rule. Stick with it and soon enough, your child (and you!) will be getting a good night's sleep.

If you're like most parents, you probably haven't had a good night's sleep since your baby was born. But don't despair - there is hope! Sleep training your one year old can be a challenge, but it is possible with a little patience and perseverance. Here are some tips to help you get started:


1. Establish a bedtime routine. A consistent bedtime routine will help signal to your child that it is time to wind down and go to sleep. Try including activities such as reading a book or taking a bath.


2. Put your child to bed drowsy, but awake. This will help them learn to self-soothe and fall asleep on their own.


3. Be patient. Sleep training can take some time, so don't get discouraged if your child doesn't immediately take to it. Stick with it and they will eventually catch on.

With these tips, you should be well on your way to getting a good night's sleep again!
