Baby Sleep at 3 Months: What to Expect and How to Support Healthy Sleep Habits

Have been on the program for just over a week, we have ditched the dummy for my 3.5month old, and she's now self settling for naps in under 10minutes, and just had our first 2.5hour lunch nap which she resettled herself.
The age appropriate app is spot on, it says settle now for sleep and it's exactly when my baby is tired.

It takes the guess work out of it all.
With my first baby we had terrible sleep from 4 months to 8 months. We then sleep trained her using Ferber method and it worked, however we went through 4 months of catnaps, and continued night waking with feeding to sleep.

This app has reminded me that you need to give your baby some time to figure it out themselves, if all other important details for good sleep are in order, and that has been so so valuable.
Instead of quick the baby is stiring, now it's lets listen to the cry, start a timer, and wait and see.

It's also given me time back with my 2.5year old daughter, as I'm no longer rocking or patting to sleep our youngest or continued dummy runs.

Thank you so much and honestly guys spend the money, you won't regret it!

We were a little skeptical as we were in the thick of the 2 year regression and it didn't look like there was any light at the end of the tunnel for us. We were underslept, run down and it was ruining us. We had previously sleep trained our daughter at 5 months old and had paid top dollar for another sleep consultant, who had given us very limited resources for future references.

But these girls have your back!!! Honestly, I love that you have the option to search previous posts and responses of similar situations.

My LO was sleeping okay during the day but was cat-napping, however he always slept well at night. When he hit 3.5months things changed and after a night where I was up 7 times for him I decided very quickly that something needed to be done before it got worse/went on for too long. I was overwhelmed with the amount t of information online and had seen the app advertised and decided to get it. It was tough for a few days but we saw a noticeable change within the week. We've been using the app for nearly 4 weeks now and he now sleeps between 1hour 20 and 2 hours at lunch, we no longer feed to sleep and 8/10 times he doesnt need a lot of settling before sleep and he has gone back to waking 2 times in the night to feed. The village is super helpful and I like that you can search concerns or topics as well as searching by age. Thanks so much for helping me get some sleep and a better routine around feeding so now I feel like I have time in my day for a change.

We are on our 3rd day with this program with our 7month old and have seen MAJOR difference in his sleep, eating habits, etc. This is a fantastic app!! We had a sleep consultant with our first son, and this app takes the cake!!!!

Even if you download the app and decide not the follow the multiple options they include for sleep training, it is still 100% worth it in my opinion just to have the help with planning wake windows, feedings, and naps! I used this for my son, who is my second born. With my first, I had hired a sleep consultant and although it worked very well, it was incredibly expensive. I knew what I had to do to help my son sleep at night but I needed some help with finding a method that would work best for him, a schedule that worked and troubleshooting help. I didn’t follow any strict method to “a T” but I took many lessons I learned from the app to help me help my boy sleep. We are miles away from where we were a month ago and we are all well rested & much happier.

If you’re a parent, you know the value of sleep (or the lack thereof). That’s where The Little Ones Sleep App comes in—trust me, it’s a total game-changer. This app is non-negotiable for anyone who wants to give themselves—and their marriage—the beautiful gift of a full night’s sleep and, wait for it, a 2-hour break in the middle of the day. Yes, you read that right, 2 hours.

But here’s the best part: It’s so much more than just a sleep training tool. This app is your ultimate guide through the ever-changing phases of babyhood and toddlerhood. It walks you through everything, from introducing solids to navigating all the quirky, unpredictable sleep needs your little one will have. I love the available and practical advice, and the feedback from the sleep consultants is so spot-on it feels like they’re right in the room with you.

In my experience, when I follow the program exactly as laid out, it’s like magic. My baby is thriving, happy, and sleeping soundly—and I feel like a supermom. Not only do I have a well-rested baby, but I’ve also gained precious time for myself, my work, and time best of all time with my husband too.

If you want to regain control over your family’s routine, get a happy, well-rested baby, and finally feel like yourself again, this app is your new best friend. Trust me, it’s worth every penny... Go ahead and just get the 0-3 year program. You won't regret it.

I was recommended this program by a work colleague and downloaded the free version when my son was born. I started using another app to track sleep and feeds as it had widgets (a new feature LO’s now has that I love!)but when my son hit the 4 month regression he went from 6 hour stretches at night to waking up every 2 hours. I was completely exhausted and the amount of information online and sleep programs when you google search sleep regression is overwhelming. The LO’s program was my last resort before giving in to the fact that I’d never sleep again and I am so glad I tried this program. I saw a massive improvement on day 1, we went from waking every 2 hours at night to waking twice which dropped to once after a few days and now he’s sleeping through consistently and self settling. I was worried about sleep training because I am strongly against cry it out methods but the little ones program allowed me to take a gentle approach whilst still being extremely effective. The village is amazing, not only are consultants available to you to assist with any questions or issues but the social village allows you to ask general questions to other mothers. It’s made my experience as a FTM a lot less daunting and lonely. I like that the schedule allows for flexibility and auto adjusts when things don’t go to plan as well as the troubleshooting notes and FAQs that help you maintain flexibility. I also found this program superior to others in that it is not just a sleep program, the schedule and lessons provide guidance around feeding times, starting solids, teething, toilet training etc. I cannot recommend this app and program enough!

After dealing with a newborn who would be awake for up to 4 hours during the day and waking 5-8 times a night, I suddenly came across this program recommended to us by my sister and friends. Why do they not teach new parents about awake windows and sleep in anti-natal classes?! With my 11 week old, it took us about 2 weeks to see results and we are now waking up just twice a night to feed. The game changer for us was blacking out his room, side settling and incorporating the feeding schedule alongside the sleep schedule. This stopped his snacking throughout the day which was what he was doing during the night, hence so many wake ups. He now has full bottles during the day and is going to bed with a nice full tummy. The online sleep consultant help is just so amazing, so responsive and the advice just makes sense! Would recommend this to any parent who will listen!

We really struggled with settling our baby using sleepy cues. I purchased this app not sure if anything would help... but the information and support we received on the village has been amazing. We used the schedule and information and adapted it to our baby.
We went from bouncing to sleep and wouldn't sleep anywhere apart from contact, no nap routine and was generally fussy with sleeping, baby had colic for the first 3 months so would wake in discomfort and would only settle with bouncing and contact nap .
4 weeks later baby is sleeping in next to me crib can self soothe to sleep without dummy, can independently fall asleep in pram and car. We do sometimes still need the pat to soothe and are still in progress with the lunch time nap but on the whole such a transformation. Special thank you to Brooke for the advice over the last few weeks.

I have to admit when I first purchased this app and program I was very skeptical. I had been given information from friends of other sleep training information but none of them I felt resonated with me and I was craving routine for me and my son. I was struggling with a crying unhappy baby at each nap time, pushing through and staying awake up to 3 hours and only having contact naps.
I now have a baby that is asleep in his cot within 5 minutes at each nap time including any power naps needed and he has good quality sleep and is happy. I haven’t even started any of the self settling, the power of routine has honestly just relaxed him in itself!! Couldn’t recommend more.

I was able to train my baby from day one to sleep independently from usually feeding to sleep. Baby is 3 months old so went straight to the 4-6 month old feed to sleep settling guide and she also slept so long for me last night 5 hours, 3 hours and now even until 5:30 and she is still asleep! She has not slept independently from 4am since a newborn! I cannot express my gratitude enough! Thank you for giving me my life and sleep back.

I bought the program desperate to get my second child, 4mo, to sleep independently during the day. It has done this and more. I was not confident knowing how to get my baby to sleep without feeding and this program showed me step by step, without judging. I felt supported to stay within my comfort level of my child's crying (with my first child I was too terrified of any crying to try any 'sleep training' but this hasn't felt like that).
By the second day my 4mo baby was sleeping better than my first child ever had. It surpassed my expectations of what my baby was capable of. The days improved immediately and that was what I was so desperate for! The nights improved a few days later, they still aren't perfect but I don't even care! Thank you for changing my life!

I was so tired of trying to get my little guy to nap for an hour at a time, and we were in a desperate cycle of catnaps. I impulsively bought the Little Ones program and am so impressed! The app is all encompassing - you can track sleep and feeds. I was worried that because I was starting this program at 6 months, he wasn’t going to adjust well. Within days, I was able to get him on the schedule, improve our naps, and our nighttime sleep. I had so many issues with other programs, because they did not give as much guidance when things went wrong. The troubleshooting section allows us to have flexibility, while still keeping up good sleep habits. Not to mention, this is so cheap compared to other sleep programs! We can’t say enough great things about this program.

We started using the app when our baby was 6.5 months and waking a few times a night from habit wakes. We went cold turkey with the dummy and used the ‘rock to soothe’ method. First day was tough and few challenging nights that first week but he was learning to self soothe at all naps and bedtime within 5 minutes by Day 2. By the end of the first week he was sleeping just over 11 hours per night and self soothing quickly himself when he woke during the night. This has genuinely changed our lives already and it’s only Week 3! Thank you so much!

As a first time mum I had no idea how small changes make such a big difference to a babies sleep!

The lessons in the app are so informative and easy to read that I feel like a sleep expert now

The 4month sleep development phase was breaking me! I didn’t want to hear my baby cry as it made me cry.
The little ones gentle approach had my little man sleeping longer within 3 days and no longer needed to be fed to sleep
I feel confident with other people putting him to bed now .
Thank you soooo much!!!!
