Description

Answering this week's Top 5 Sleep Questions. This week’s questions highlight the following topics:

- My 18 month old has been on one nap per day for a few weeks but only ever naps 1.5 hours. Her nap is at noon. How can I get her to sleep 2-3 hours? 

- What are the wake window for a 10 month old?

- Do you have tips for a 19 month old who is experiencing a lot of separation anxiety at bedtime? 

- My 9 month old has consistently been waking at 5am every day. Do you have tips for getting her to sleep later? She goes to sleep totally independently - we sleep trained her when she was 6 months old. 

- My baby is 3 and a half months - can you describe a proper sleep schedule for her?
