I have another question about weaning from breastfeeding. Could you please advise? What should we do about the routine? I keep a sleep and feeding diary, and our first feeding is usually around 5:30-5:40 AM. Should I start putting him to bed earlier? I think he might take a long time to fall asleep without nursing. Or should I wait until that time? If he takes half an hour or more to fall asleep, will his schedule shift? I'm also a bit scared to think about the night feedings — our second feeding is around 6:10-6:30 AM.

When you start to gradually wean from breastfeeding, it's best to slowly adjust the routine so that your little one feels comfortable. You can try putting them to bed a bit earlier, for example, 10-15 minutes earlier, to help them get used to the new schedule. If they fall asleep without breastfeeding for a long time, that's a good sign — it means they are learning to fall asleep on their own, and you can make small adjustments to the routine. The key is to do this gradually, ensuring there are no stresses or disruptions, so they don't start waking up at night.

My son takes a nap at 12 o'clock in the afternoon. So, when I stopped breastfeeding him for his daytime nap, we would go for a walk to help him fall asleep easily. When we returned, he would eat warm soup and fall asleep fairly quickly. Nighttime sleep is a bit more challenging, but the routine is similar: a two-hour walk, dinner, a bath, and then to bed.

It's unclear—how long has the child been awake if their wakefulness is so brief?

Anastasiya If you tap on the person icon, it will show the age.
My son is 1 year and 3 months old.
Is a total sleep time of 12 hours considered low?

Anastasiya I'm not sure, there doesn't seem to be a little person here. It only indicates what you plan to do...
And for a child of this age, you can refer to the table. Generally, it appears that 14-16 hours are allocated for sleep (including two naps during the day). This means that the time spent awake is about 8-10 hours per day.

Anastasiya We have one sleep session lasting about 2 hours. The night is approximately at 10, and then around midnight.

My 1.2-year-old wakes up at 8:30 in the morning. Her first nap is from 11:00 to 12:15, the second nap is from 15:00 to 16:30, and she sleeps again at night around 21:00. We finished breastfeeding less than a month ago. She falls asleep just like before—I put her in the crib and leave, and she sleeps. How does stopping breastfeeding affect her falling asleep? It seems like only very young babies fall asleep while nursing, right? My daughter was falling asleep on the breast until she was about 2-3 months old, then it changed.
