Sleep patterns of toddlers and solutions


A lot has been written about the ideal conditions that foster good sleeping patterns in babies. Babies are known to be weird sleepers (aside from being generally weird). Each and every baby has its own distinct nature and habits. Each and every one of them is as different as chalk and cheese.

Peaceful and erratic sleep patterns
This is something that the adults are always searching for! Once you turn into an adult, sleep like many other things becomes an otherworldly luxury. Thankfully, when you’re an infant, life is kinder and you can fall asleep anytime and anywhere without a care in the world!

Babies are known to have some of the most erratic sleeping patterns in the world! Sometimes, they sleep for hours without a single disruption and sometimes they sleep intermittently, waking up every few hours to disturb their folks!

Age related sleep patterns
The sleeping patterns of babies can be dissected once you know the effect age has on it. With age comes maturity and that is also true for babies, or at least their sleeping patterns anyway. In the first four months, a baby sleeps soundly and does not pose problems to the sleep of those around them.

It’s after the first four months that things tend to take an interesting turn. After the babies turn four months old, they develop sleep regression. It is the phenomenon when the baby starts waking up unnecessarily or starts taking shorter naps than usual. Basically the baby breaks out of its old sleep pattern into a more evolved and common sleep pattern.

There are many different month markers in a baby’s lifespan when sleep regression takes over. However, since all babies are different, these markers are also not set in stone and differ from baby to baby.
