"Hi, my name is Veronica Baragas with My Wiggles and Giggles dot com, and I'd like to share with you how to get your baby to sleep through the night. There could be a lot of things that and, you know, tie into a good night sleep. So, the first thing I would think about is your child's schedule. When is your baby eating and sleeping? Making sure that you keep the baby active during the day, so that they can determine the day and night. So, lots of activity during the day, and make sure that, you know, you get that energy going and all worked out before bedtime. Definitely stick to a consistent bedtime routine, so that means, you know, dinner, bath, the books or what not. Whatever it is that your routine is, make sure that they know it's going to happen at the same time every night. So, that will help to stay consistent with, you know, sleeping through the night. Sometimes, a good sleep through the night could be about six hours; maybe a little bit less, maybe a little bit more, but be very patient. It's all a new process to your baby as it is to you. So, just getting them on a good schedule, a good routine, and staying consistent with everything that you do will help benefit for infant's sleep through the night."
