how to ensure baby sleeps throughout after feeds?

2y ago

This depends on the developmental age of your baby, as younger babies need more frequent feeds. Additionally, if your baby is experiencing discomforts, it can be hard for him/her to return to sleep. If your baby isn’t waking from hunger, is well, and is having difficulties returning to sleep, you can consider sleep training if your baby is above 4 months old. If you do decide on sleep training, there are different methods, and the most effective ones are those that involve helping your baby unlearn sleep associations they can’t independently manage (e.g. rocking or feeding) and learn new sleep associations (e.g. routine, or a comfortable blanket) that they can manage.
