Hunger plays one of the biggest contributing factors to babies not sleeping.

Babies & toddlers are very good at controlling their own calories, so that means the more you feed them during the day - the less they need overnight! If your in a situation where your baby is feeding every hour or two overnight…

You need to switch it up. Offer your baby milk every hour (or two) during the day over a 24-48hr period. And if that means waking them up to do that, then go for it.

Once your baby’s feeding is back on track, it’s important to have a structure with your daytime feeds. It's also imperative your baby is getting all the calories and nutrition they need during the day to avoid them waking too often overnight.

Simply put: More calories during the day - less at night!

If you have a baby between 6months - 18months it's imperative your baby is getting all the calories and nutrition they need during the day.

Otherwise, your baby is going to wake up hungry and no amount of settling will work. Make sure your baby is NOT hungry before a nap or isn’t due for a feed 30mins after falling asleep – I often advise to offer a “top-up” feed before a nap, to rule out hunger as a cause for catnapping. It may only be 60mls of formula or 5-6mins on the breast.

This is not an opportunity for your little one to drift off for a power nap. Keep it strictly business - 15-20mins before nap time offer your little one a feed in the living room with the TV on blinds open.

Ensure you keep bub awake. Once you have offered the top-up give it 5-10mins before taking him in for his nap.
