My newborn sleep schedule.

As a new mom I always followed a simple rule: feed, play, sleep.

Feed your baby play with them for sometime and then let them have their nap. Your new born can not be awake for more than 2 hours, so make sure you don't over tire them. You may feel that all your baby is doing is feeding and sleeping but that is what is needed for them to grow.
Once they are 4-5 months they will start waking up for longer hours.

I Followed a simple routine of bath, feed, song/story, and pat her to sleep.

**Follow it regularly for you baby to understand when its bedtime.

**Keep a watch on baby’s sign of tiredness like yawning, rubbing eyes and put them to sleep.don't wait long, if they are tired they are difficult to put to sleep

**Keeping your baby awake for a longer time will not make them sleep better at night.

**Do not talk or play with them at night simply feed them and put them back to sleep.

**Don’t feed your baby in order to get her to go to sleep. If she gets used to this pattern, she will only be able to go to sleep while eating. Keep the two separate.

**Remember every baby, every family is different. Adjust and make a routine that suits you and your family. Talk to your pediatrician and ask if you need to wake your baby for feeds if not then you can let your baby sleep for longer hours at night.

Gradually your baby will start waking up for longer hours during the day and sleep longer hours at night. Till then sleep and rest when your baby sleeps.
