How to Help Your Baby Settle

Babies can be helped to settle into a good sleeping pattern if you follow the same routine all the time. Firstly make sure the room temperature is not too hot or too cold. If your baby's back and tummy are warm, then he is warm. Having cold hands and feet don't always mean your baby is too cold.

Don't disturb your baby once you've settled him down. Babies can sleep when it is light, and they don't need perfect silence, but they do need to be left without being disturbed. It is normal for baby to have brief waking periods when he may whimper of cry for a few moments.

Make sure the baby is not overtired. Letting a baby stay up later because they don't seem tired is a big mistake. They should be settled at the same time each night, whether they seem tired or not. An overtired baby will often fret and fuss and be unable to get off to sleep.

If the weather is not too hot, try wrapping your baby securely in a sheet or light rug. This often provides a feeling of security and baby will fall asleep more easily. If baby kicks off his blankets on cold nights, dress him in two sleep suits to keep him warm.

Ensure that your baby's room is always at an optimal temperature with reverse cycle split system air conditioners. Advantage Air's (http://www.advantageair.com.au) air conditioners come with optional Fresh Air technology to introduce fresh air from the outside for great air flow.
