How to Get a Baby to Sleep: Tips from Pediatrician Dr. Gurinder Dabhia | San Diego Health

My 7 weeks baby😢 i cant anymore around 1 to 2 am

My seven week old will sleep on anyone yet as soon as you put her down for the night she’s awake and full of energy . I put her in a sleep sack and even that didn’t work it just made her lazy to feed during the night and not latching right . I’m so so so tired !

My 5.5 weeks old doesn’t sleep much, he gets disturbed so easily as well and wakes up pretty easily 😒

I’m 7 months pregnant, I’m already scared for first two months😩😩😩

I have a 17 year old daughter and a 7 week old baby boy. I'm 41, so much older than I was at 23. I swear my daughter was much easier and slept through the night pretty early on. But I honestly can't remember 😕 my son recently started spitting/throwing up after every feeding and in between 😢 I'm breastfeeding and formula feeding. Please don't come for me but my son sleeps in bed with me. I don't have any pillows near him. I tried the bassinet that can be right up next to the bed, a moses basket and a regular bassinet and he won't stay asleep in it. He cries and gets so worked up. My inlaws said to let him cry it out. But I can't do that. When he's 2 or 3 months I'm going to start sleep training. Because it's safer for him to be in his own bed and I want my bed back! My husband is in another state (he's in the Army) so I'm so thankful for my Mom and all she does. I seriously couldn't do this without her. My daughter helps when she's home lol and my inlaws offer to have him over. But I'm not ready for him to stay the night anywhere just yet. Thank you for this video. You both answered every question I had.

Sincerely one mentally and physically exhausted Mama ♡

My 7-month-old and I are watching this- me for tips, him for things to look out for lol

I have 8 month old twin boys and I’m sleepy all the time 😥

When i was pregnant couldnt sleep properly , i used to get like 3 - 4 at the time and i thought that was hard lol now with a new born baby boy i realise how luck i was. 🤣🤣

I'm tired 😭

It's 3 AM here in India. I am so done

My baby is 7 days old and he cant sleep day and night so what should we do?

So informative 😌

Hi to the parents that have babies going through sleep regression and teething 🙃

🙏

My baby doesn't sleep through the whole day or night....just takes 15'20mints nap why is it so....???no proper sleeps just awake with little bit noise what should I do

I’m on baby #5 and my baby is 3 weeks old so even for me this was refreshing

How do you sleep when you work nights

Great information bc omg

It's not the night that hurts us, it's the day sleeps. My boy never naps. We believe that he's all cranky because he doesn't sleep during the day. He sleeps through the night already. It's the day that's the problem

All 4 of my children were sleep trained from the first week. I never kept the house quiet during the day. I purposely didn't let my child sleep all day. Things like changing a diaper and a little mid day sponge bath will wake a baby up. I would interact with them and talk to them as much as I could during the day. Then every evening about 9 pm or 10 pm baby would get a warm sponge bath or full soothing bath. Warm water and baby wash. Then lotion time. I kept everything quiet and soothing. Feed them their night feeding. Burp time. Swaddle baby real good so they can fall asleep. In a few weeks they were pretty much sleeping thru the night. I still checked on them thru the night. I even set an alarm to get up and check on them once they were sleeping longer. I also used things like a fan for white noise. And I played soft soothing music. They whole idea is to make a strong night time ritual that results in baby resting longer. Also, with my oldest son, he was starving. After 6 weeks I had to start adding a little baby cereal to his formula. Took him a few days to adjust but he stopped screaming his head off at night. He was content. All my kids got formula. I don't have answers for moms who breastfeed. I have no experience with that. So this is my old school advice from a mother to 4 and now grand mother to 8.

i have a 5 month old baby and he still not sleeping the night and i know in 6 months they will be teething so when babies start sleep during the night ?

I have an 11 year old that use to fight is sleep up until pre-K I pray this don’t happen to my now 1 month old

Sid is real babies wake up multiple times for a reason not just feeding

Am feeding for one hr once from 12am to 9am still he isn't sleeping 😭😭.. he pees every hr too. Am loosing my sanity without sleep.

im not a parent just babysitting an almost 1 month old baby😭

You guys made me feel good. I’m soooo exhausted. My baby won’t stay sleep for long at all he sleeps fine in the day but at night 😩 lordddddd

For all y'all who think you have no hope, I was so overwhelmed that I didn't start a routine until my baby was 3 months and she is taking very well to it

Thanks this helps a lot my sister is sick right now and we try to get her to sleep but it’s hard because she’s sick she’s my new baby sister and we’re trying to stay strong and give her every medicine we can and after I showed my family members this video it helped a lot on how to get my sister to sleep thanks so much!

Ty

I have a 5 week old son and nothing helps 😅

Still wake 1-5am to talk my baby because she wants talkies hahaha😂

i am so happy to listen dr gurinder...proud of u from punjab...

I haven't slept in 2 months but reading these comments with other parents that are not sleeping makes me feel so much better 😂

My baby will scream down the house and my neighbours will call child services if I leave her to sleep on her own! So I'm stuck with feeding her to sleep. Don't know what to do when she gets older and no more breastfeeding to sleep

Means the sleep training should be started only after 6-8 weeks? Till then,it's only the baby's choice how n when they wanna sleep?

Thank you much I have tried your trick and it make my baby sleep thank you

This was incredibly helpful.

Thanks for sharing! Leaving a comment to help the channels exposure.

Oh… my baby is only 2 days so I’m good. I’ll watch this video again when she’s 6 weeks 🥰 more cuddles for me

My baby dont want to sleep she will be fed and then she sleeps like 15-20 mins and then cry again and feed again. Im so stress out. I cant finish doing workload bcoz of this routine

I hve 17days old baby. She usually cry at night even after feeding. It is like she is always hungry. We normally give her 2 onz. But seems like it is never enough for her. Im afraid of over feeding. What should i do. Helpppp

Congrats to all the tired new parents that looked this up 😂

My son always always sleeps while feeding literally at the breast .. is it a good thing ? How do I stop him from doing this ? He is 6 month old

My baby is 1week old im looking for some information these helps me thank you

Sometimes, baby just won't do any of this easily. you have to find what works best for you and your baby. Every baby is different and these are good guidelines to try.

Reading the comments is such a relief for me. Very hard days with my 6 months old. Sleep deprived mum.

My first born was great from day 1 but it was my second child that wanted to be a little more stubborn. We tried old school tactics & new school tactics but on our last attempt the only thing that helped was music. Whether it was lullaby, nursery rhymes, ambient music or yacht rock he was out!! I hope whoever is reading this and has never tried it please do!!
