How long should it take your baby to drift off? 5 minutes? 15? More? Sally and Bec break down what’s normal when it comes to settling times, why a quick bedtime isn’t always a good sign, and what to do if your baby or toddler suddenly takes longer to fall asleep.
Expect practical examples, stories from real families (and our own kids!), plus tips for making sure your schedule and wake windows actually match your baby’s sleep needs.
What You’ll Learn
• What “sleep onset latency” really means
• Why quick bedtimes can signal overtiredness
• Why some babies cry for 1–2 minutes every night — and it’s normal
• When longer settling means you should adjust your wake windows
• Why it’s okay to let them process and take their time
