How much sleep does my baby need?

If your baby wakes up crying and doesn't go back to sleep, there are a few things you can try: 1) Check to see if they are hungry, dirty, or uncomfortable. If they need a diaper change or a feeding, attend to that first. 2) Comfort them with a gentle touch or soothing words. Rocking or swaying them can also help. 3) Make sure the room is dark, quiet, and at a comfortable temperature. 4) Try a white noise machine or a lullaby to help them fall back asleep. 5) Put baby back to bed while they are still drowsy but not fully asleep. This will help them learn how to fall asleep on their own. It's important to remember that crying is a normal part of a baby's development and it's not always possible to soothe them back to sleep. Some babies may need more help than others to fall asleep, and it's essential to be patient and consistent with your approach.
