baby did wake up at 1:10 and again at 4:40. What I found was this… there wasn’t any noise to drown out the background noise such as a white noise machine. That is instrumental because when a baby gets in a lighter phase of sleep, it helps the sleep cycle goes into the next one. Also mom had two lights on. That may have caused an issue because lights can counteract with melatonin, especially if we’re learning how to go to sleep. We are not able to override that process. I found that although he would settle more when he was held for longer period of time a complete downshift needs to be done the first time he goes to sleep his body needs more practice.. I requested for mom to be more intentional with his bedtime tonight and if allowed to spend more quiet time with him as he needs time, relaxing his mind. We will see how he goes..
