By six to 12 months of age, you will have noticed that your baby is more alert and able to stay awake longer between sleeps during the day.

Your baby will start to sleep for longer periods of time and can go longer periods between feeds. In other words, their circadian rhythm (the natural signals that tell us when to eat and sleep) is now well established.
