When to start a baby bedtime routine
BEDTIME ROUTINE FOR BABY 2017/ SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT / NIGHTTIME ROUTINE
hey guys welcome back to my channel so
today I'm collaborating with a company
called taking care of babies this video
is gonna be over how I get my baby to
sleep 12 hours through the night and our
nightly routine Scarlett has been
sleeping 12 hours through the night
since she was about 10 weeks old she has
always been a great sleeper but I like
to give most to my credit towards this
class that I chose class is designed for
new and expectant mothers and babies who
are 12 weeks and younger and Kara
teaches you about healthy sleep habits
and how to set up a daily routine so
your nights are successful we use pretty
much everything that Kara taught us it's
helped us tremendously Scarlett went
from sleeping 6 to 7 hours to a full 12
hours within just a couple of weeks
I'll show you guys step by step what we
do every single night to have our babies
sleep 12 hours through the night also
please keep in mind that this is our
routine and this is what works best for
us but it may not work for you anyways
let's get started so we start her
bedtime routine every night around 7
p.m.
and tonight his bath night so I'm
grabbing two of her organic cotton
washcloths in her organic cotton towel
my mom actually bought these for
Scarlett they're from Amazon I'll link
them down below and our bathtub is the
Summer Infant so now I'm just going to
lay out Scarlett's towel so it's ready
for her when she gets out of the bath
and I have this little scrubby brush
from the hospital I use this to wash
your hair and we are using the Johnsons
head to toe baby wash
[Music]
you
[Music]
so we always listen to Frank Sinatra
during bath time it's turned into a
little bath time ritual for us we just
started using our Summer Infant bathtub
without the infant insert she just got
big enough I personally love bath nights
because they help relax Scarlett and
they make bedtime super easy so if your
baby's extra fussy I definitely
recommend giving the baby a bath because
it helps calm and suit them
so now I'm just dry and scarlet off and
she always laughs at this I don't know
why is she thinks it's really funny
[Music]
so next I'm going to put a Pampers
Swaddlers overnight diaper on her she's
still wearing the size one we really
like these diapers for night time we
really like the absorb away liner that
pulls the wetness and mess away from the
baby's skin
so it keeps her dry all night long so
now I'm going to give Scarlett a massage
and I read somewhere that you're
supposed to ask for the baby's
permission so that's what I'm doing
right there I don't know how true that
is
but I always do it we're using the
Johnsons baby lotion this was
recommended to me by my mom and it works
really well for her
[Music]
[Music]
so now I'm going to use her Eucerin
cream to put on some of her dry skin
patches on her face this was actually
recommended to me as well
[Music]
so I'm now going to clean out Scarlett's
nose with the bulb from her safety first
kit she does not like this part and I'm
going to brush her hair even though she
doesn't have much
I'm now going to dress scarlet and one
of her sleepers try to do the
lightweight ones because it's very hot
here in Arizona right now and I love the
ones that zip up they make things so
much easier
[Music]
so now I'm going to turn on Scarlett's
dome this is a white noise sound machine
for any new or expecting moms I would
say a sound machine is a must-have
[Music]
I'm now going to get a bottle ready for
Scarlett we use the empty ml infant
formula and we use the nursery purified
water without fluoride the bottles that
we use are the comb Otomo bottles and I
will link these down below as well
I bought them off of Amazon you can also
find them at byebye baby
[Music]
now I'm going to swaddle Scarlett and we
are using the halo swaddle sleep sack I
[Music]
would strongly recommend swaddling your
baby this definitely helps with the
startle reflex which wakes up a lot of
infants so this is a type of hold that
carrot teaches in her class that helps
soothe a crying baby
now that scarlett has calmed down I'm
going to feed her a bottle and rock her
I'll put her in her crib sleepy but not
asleep so she can learn to fall asleep
on her own I keep this nightlight
plugged in while I feed her that I do
unplug it once she is done feeding and
goes to sleep so the room is pitch black
[Music]
and she is sound asleep
I really hope that was helpful to any
moms out there who are struggling with
getting their babies to sleep I am NOT
an expert at any of this but Kara is
