Part 1: The Prep
Module 1: Understanding 3-4 Month Sleep Changes
If you're wondering "why is my 4-month-old sleeping worse?" or "is this the 4-month sleep regression?", this module explains what's really happening. You'll learn why sleep cycles permanently change at this age, why your baby might be waking every hour, and what's normal versus what needs attention. Perfect for parents experiencing the 4-month sleep regression or wondering when to start sleep training.
Module 2: Creating Optimal Sleep Environment
Struggling with short naps or frequent night wakings? Your baby's sleep environment plays a bigger role than you might think. This module covers safe sleep setup, blackout curtains for better naps, and white noise to help your baby sleep longer. You'll get step-by-step guidance on room temperature, lighting, and creating a sleep space that supports longer, more restful sleep.
Module 3: Schedules & Routines
Wondering about 3-4 month wake windows or how to handle short naps? This module gives you flexible, realistic schedules that work in real life. You'll learn age-appropriate wake windows, how to adjust when naps are short, and how to create routines that don't feel rigid. Perfect for parents asking "when should I start sleep training?" or dealing with unpredictable nap lengths.
Part 2: The Plan
Module 4: Settling Techniques
If your baby only falls asleep with feeding, rocking, or holding, this module shows you how to teach self-settling at 4 months old. You'll learn gentle settling techniques, when to start sleep training, and how to help your baby fall asleep independently. This addresses the core of the 4-month regression: babies who wake at the end of each sleep cycle and need help resettling the way they first fell asleep.
Module 5: Night Wakes & Feeding
Dealing with a 4-month-old waking every hour or multiple times at night? This module helps you understand whether night wakings are due to hunger, habit, or the sleep regression. You'll learn how to distinguish feeding needs from resettling needs, when overnight feeds are still necessary, and strategies to reduce frequent night wakings. Perfect for parents asking "how can I stop night wakings?" or "why does my baby wake every 2 hours?"
Module 6: Extending Naps
Frustrated with 30-minute cat naps? This module explains why short naps happen at 3-4 months and gives you practical techniques to help your baby sleep longer. You'll learn about sleep cycles, the Le Pause technique, and the Cot-Hour strategy to extend naps. Ideal for parents dealing with nap resistance, short daytime sleep, or wondering how to consolidate naps at this age.
