Sleep!: At 10 weeks old a baby can learn to sleep up to 6 hours at night. Put your baby on a routine. Every 3 hours during the day, feed your baby, whether they ask first or not. Then play for up to 45 minutes. Then put them down in their crib for nap. At 10/11pm start the last cycle with feeding, playing then sleep. If they wake up place a hand on them but don't pick them up. Let them learn to self sooth
