By the third or fourth month, most babies sleep for their longest period (up to 7 to 8 hours) during the night and develop set nap times. You can help your baby-and yourself-sleep better.

This routine will teach your baby to soothe herself to sleep, and you won't need to rock or cuddle her to sleep every time she wakes up during the night.
