Q – My baby is 10 months old and I am still up every 3 hours all night.  I think I need to get some sleep in order to function properly during the day.  How can I get my baby to sleep?

A – The way that your baby falls asleep is probably the way that your baby has to return to sleep during their night wakings.  So you would want to start making changes at bedtime and then again do the same thing at all night wakings.  You will have to teach your baby to fall asleep without props so that they can learn to return to sleep when they next wake up.  The type of method that you could use would depend on a couple of factors but the underlying key in any method is for them to go into their crib aware – sleepy but awake.
