The key to getting a baby to sleep consistently is by keeping bedtime rituals. A baby should not be rocked to sleep one night while being left to cry themselves to sleep another. Consistency is the key to forming a healthy sleeping pattern.
A quiet and dark room is one of the most optimal sleeping environments. Something as simple as a dishwasher or dryer can interrupt your baby/' s sleeping schedule on any given night. Therefore- you/' ll want your baby to be in a room that is away from noises.

Nevertheless- your baby is sure to cry at some point. Many parents use a method known as controlled crying that has been found to be successful in many cases. If your baby starts crying- leave him for five minutes before soothing him. Remain only long enough to pat his back and say a few kind words. Do not pick him up out of his cot. Always speak reassuringly when you go in. By waiting 5 to 10 minutes- your baby will learn that crying will not help and your reassuring voice will help your baby feel secure.
You/' ll find that most babies begin sleeping through the night by 9 months. Like all things- soon this too shall pass.
