💤 Key Takeaways

✨ Sleep matters for everyone – just like food and air, uninterrupted sleep is essential for both babies and parents to thrive.

🕰️ Know your baby’s needs – newborns sleep 15–18 hours total, dropping naps gradually as they grow. By about 16 months, most are down to one nap per day.

🌤️ Wake windows are gold – base sleep timing on how long your baby can stay happily awake, not a fixed clock. Adjust bedtime depending on the day’s naps.

🤱 Avoid “sleep props” – rocking, feeding, or bouncing to sleep can lead to short.
