Episode 216
Tuesday, 2 December, 2025
In this episode of How Long 'Til Bedtime?, we dive into one of the most common questions parents ask: How long does sleep training actually take — and how can you tell if it's working? Allison breaks down the realistic timeline she sees when working one-on-one with families, why the process isn't always linear, and what improvement should look like in the first week. You'll learn: What progress typically looks like from night one through week two Why night four is a key milestone for evaluating success The difference between night sleep improvements and nap stabilization How temperament and method impact the timeline Why "sleep training" is more than just cry-it-out or choosing another method Red flags that signal your approach needs adjusting When it's time to reach out for professional support Allison also explains why you shouldn't feel stuck in sleep training mode for weeks or months, and how small tweaks to schedule, method, or consistency can often make a significant difference.
