• Just as active (REM) sleep is followed by quiet (NREM) sleep, so we have active and drowsy periods during the day as well.

• Look out for signs that your baby is tired and put him down to sleep then – it will be easier for him to fall asleep at this time.

• Start to get him ready for sleep when he is still in an active phase so that he can enjoy his bath and be dried and dressed just in time to feel drowsy.

• If you miss one drowsy period you may have to wait an hour or so for another, as the whole cycle takes about this long to complete.
