My LO is 6 weeks old now and I'd like to get into the habit of having her settle herself to sleep. At the moment we rock/walk her to sleep but it's a nightmare at 4am trying to rock her to sleep for 45 mins at a time. When I put her into her basket awake she thrashes around and hardly ever settles on her own. What is the best way to teach her to do this? Do I just wait for her tired cues (yawning etc) then put her down? And how long should I leave her if she's not settling before I pick her up again? Does your LO self settle, and how did you teach them to do it? Any advice/tips would be very much appreciated. Thanks. Xxx
