i have 4 month old baby who is now waking once a night but again between 5-30 and 6. what do i do with him???? Do i get up then or try to get him to go back to sleep, if so how do i do that.

Some days he will go back to sleep again and some days you will have to get up with him. The dark mornings will work in your favour soon and by Spring he will be sleeping through the night, but in the meantime take a nap when he does during the day - you've earned it.

Some 'tips' are worth their weight in gold
and I reckon this is one -
a babe will drop off to sleep
as soon as its feet
are as warm as your tum.

hi just wondered how your getting on with your baby waking early, my little girl is now 2 1/2 and ive started using an alarm clock so she knows when it beeps its time to get up, if she gets up before then i just put her back in bed and tell her to wait untill it beeps, she generaly falls back to sleep. it seems to be getting better all the time and she is sleeping longer in the morning, when we started this she was waking up at about 6am so i set it for 6.10 then as she got used to the idea i lengthened the time now its set fot 7.30
