How to Sleep Train Your Baby (Without Losing Your Mind)

Struggling with sleepless nights? You’re not alone.

Sleep training can feel overwhelming, especially with so much advice flying around. But here’s the truth: you can help your baby sleep better without harsh methods or endless crying. And we’ve got the perfect guide to walk you through it.

Why Sleep Training Matters

Establishing healthy sleep habits early helps with your baby’s brain development, emotional regulation, and immune system. And let’s be real, it also helps *you* function like a human again.

But where do you begin?

What Is Sleep Training, Really?

Sleep training is simply teaching your baby how to fall asleep and stay asleep on their own. It doesn’t mean abandoning them to cry all night. It’s about creating structure, soothing routines, and gradually building independence.

When Should You Start Sleep Training?

Most experts agree that 4–6 months is a good time to start gently introducing sleep training. But even if your baby is older, it’s never too late to build better sleep habits.

Popular Sleep Training Methods (That Actually Work)

Here are 2 gentle options parents love:

- The Chair Method: Stay close and gradually move away each night.
- Pick Up/Put Down: For babies under 7 months—calm, then place back down.
