As many of you will probably know if you've listened to my podcast before, my first child started off as a terrible sleeper. 

And like any parent in my position, I did a ton of research to try and figure out what the problem was.

For some reason, no matter how many people I heard talking about the importance of bedtime routines, I always dismissed them as being inconsequential.

But I'm a firm believer now, and today I'll be discussing why bedtime routines are so important for getting your baby sleeping through the night, and what you can do to improve your little one's routine to ensure they're primed and ready for a long, restful snooze.
