Rest To Your Nest

Sample Newborn Sleep Schedule

Remember, this is a flexible schedule, not a strict schedule and will vary daily based on nap length.

Couple things to keep in mind:
➡️ Wake windows are only 30-60 minutes for 0-4 weeks and 60 to 90 minutes for 4 to 12 weeks
➡️ Nap lengths vary often and can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours
➡️ Follow your child's lead on feeds. There is lot of big developments happening during this period and may notice periods of additional feeds or cluster feeds.
➡️ Recommend waking baby at a consistent time (suggested 8:00am latest morning wake)

As always, flexibility is everything here. Some days will look like nothing like this, and that’s normal. This sample schedule is just a starting guide!
