my baby's sleeping problem

My daughter is now 8 months old. But she had this problem. she didn't want to sleep at night, when i wanted her to. I found that the easiest way to deal with this is to keep her up all day long. as much as i could. one nap during the day was okay and it needed to be an early nap. but no more than one nap or she wouldn't sleep at night. i then would feel her dinner when it was time to get ready for bed at night. doctor said to put cereal in her bottle that way she will be completely full at bedtime. then i would give her a nice warm bath and get her dressed for bed. then i would but her in her bed. she would fuss for a few minutes... but she would go to sleep as long as it was completely dark in her room. i did this for a week... and it works. my daughter now sleeps all night long... and i get the sleep i need to. she takes two naps during the day now, but they are really short ones. but she sleeps better at night, because she's not sleeping all day long anymore. i think your baby my have their days and nights mixed up. but this should help you out some. good luck!

Each child is different and some will have better sleeping patterns then others , just keep trying to keep your baby on schedule and if you are lucking he/she will adjust easily again . My little girl is over a year now and still does not sleep well . Either does my three year old yet my younger children were always very good sleepers . I just keep trying that is the most we can do .

Babies go through different phases as they grow and that includes sleep patterns. It isn't anything to worry about. Find some time in the evenings for quiet time (just the two of you). Read her a story, give her a warm bath (lavender baby bath always made mine sleepy), feed her a bottle, rock her to sleep or just go ahead and tuck her in. She'll start to realize that this is her sleeping routine and she'll pick it up in no time. I always enjoyed the evenings with our children. This is the routine we used.
