so when your infant starts to
you might notice and sometimes even
before that a witching hour and that's
just when everybody seems to get really
cranky and you hear lots of crying and
crying and it's five or six or seven pm
usually when people call that a witching
hour what they don't realize is it's
just bedtime
so infants really need to go to bed much
earlier than you think so the ideal time
for bedtime once they've established
that they have a bedtime is between 6 &
8 p.m. as they get a little bit older by
4 months you really want that to be
closer to 6 than 8 p.m. so if you find
that you have a cranky infant sometime
between those hours keep in mind it
probably just means it's their bedtime
and you want to catch them before they
get cranky and put them down to sleep
making sure that their sleep environment
is very soothing and not confused
foreplay so take any toys out of the
crib you really don't want to leave them
in the crib for any kind of playtime or
treat it like a playpen it's just a
soothing place for sleep when they wake
up you go and you pick them up and you
say hello good morning or did you have a
nice nap but you let them know that they
slept and now it's time to get up and
out of the crib the only exception is if
they're happily just sitting there
looking at their hands or cooing we're
very relaxed and you want them to also
learn how to be in their crib very
relaxed because they might even want to
go back to sleep or just think about
what they want to do and how they want
to get up in fact that happier they are
the more likely it is that they had a
nice restful nap or sleep so that's a
good sign
you
