It's hard to get my son 3 months to sleep in the day. He is an ultra light sleeper. After patting for 15 min, he only sleeps for another 15 mins before he is awake again. Anyone has similar experience?

Hi my gal was like this for the first 4 months. Firstly she has a hard time falling asleep unlike other babies. She is not the kind of baby who craves sleep a lot. Secondly she is a Ultra light sleeper that the slightest sound like my knees creaking will wake her. I had to rock her to sleep several times a day and then let her sleep on my chest. Once I put her down anywhere she will wake almost immediately. I almost went crazy. I had to baby wear her and keep walking around as she will wake once I sit down. It was so so tiring that I could not believe things will get better.However her naps started to get longer from about 4 months onwards, sometimes falling asleep on her own. I also started to give her pacifier for sleeping time. And slowly her naps became very fixed. It could be a 30mins nap at first then drag to 45 mins and slowly to 1.5 hours. Yes it does get better so hang in there!! If you don't mind can use electric cradle Yao Lan which helps them fall asleep faster. I use that a lot initially but I manually shook the cradle instead of relying on the auto motion.

If you are patting your child to sleep, it means that he is relying on a sleep prop to help him fall asleep. Sounds like he may be an overtired child if he doesn't nap well during the day. So he can't really go into a deep sleep as well if he's overtired. My advice is to get him to bed early like 6-7pm and teach him to fall asleep on his own without your help. By the way, a good nap is at least 1.5-2 hours long. My 2 months old baby can nap for 1.5-2 hours each naps and sleep 7-9 hours overnight. It's important to foster healthy sleep habits for your baby so he doesn't get overtired. Remember you offer healthy food for your baby, you must also offer healthy sleep for them to allow them to develop well physically and mentally.

Yes my no1 was previously like this too. He will only nap for short while but when he is out with me (stationary in stroller because I'm having lunch with friends etc) he will sleep for very long. Then I realised he was too hot at home and i started to turn on the aircon for his noon naps. since then he slept much better. Maybe you can see if you can change his sleeping place or maybe play some music. Maybe stimulate something like his night time sleep

my eldest was like that... v tiring as I had to be around most of the time and could not do anything. In the end, I resorted to babywear. Keeping her close to me as I cleaned the house and cooked. She was sleeping soundly when babywearing her. At times, I just walked around the park with stroller and she would fall asleep too. So need to trial and error.
