Sample Newborn Routines
While newborns are unpredictable and can’t be set to a clock, some new parents prefer a rough guide to give some structure to their day. These newborn routines are based on an awake time of 7am and work within age appropriate awake windows. Adjust them if your baby wakes earlier and if your baby is showing tired signs, settle them down to sleep before the set nap time. There are variations based on whether your baby is able to sleep for longer stretches or if they are just catnapping.
