Daylight savings and baby sleep
Posted by Karen Faulkner onI think daylight savings can be your new friend!
I'm here to reassure you that nothing bad is going to happen. I promise. They sky will not fall in or anything remotely like it. If anything I'm looking forward to them. I've had many phone calls about early morning waking. Suddenly these little ones are waking up at 5am or 5:30am and other unearthly hours and these are most definitely not morning times. The main cause of this early morning waking is the daylight and UV. At 5am melatonin, that neurotransmitter that helps babies get to sleep and stay asleep is at its lowest. So one little ray of light comes into their bedroom and ping they're awake. I'll also blame the birds too while I'm at it!!!
