I have a 1week old boy at home .. what ways can i use to get him sleeping at night !
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use only patience: New babies do not care about day or night, and parents must patiently wait 3 months before most babies sleep better at night. Parents learn to switch off at night for one feeding, so the husband can use a bottle for one of the feedings while the wife gets a chance to sleep a 4-hour stretch during the night. Three months goes by really fast! then, a baby can sleep about a 6-7 hour stretch at night.
