A. Establish a sleep time routine and environment light dim lights calm surrounding, or a sleep time bath, familiar lullaby or song then, feed baby until she is drowsy (just about to sleep) but lay her down when still awake. It may take some time for baby to get used to this new routine Be patient and have faith. change takes time
