Night wean or sleep train first?

What do you think should come first?

This seems cruel if you are sleep training a child who is used to/needs to be fed. Obviously wean but what age? Child may not be ready

Do whatever taking Cara babies says

You still feed the baby if you sleep train before night weaning.

I always do both together because my primary way of getting a fussy baby back to sleep is nursing. But then I also don't really sleep train; I just hope my babies sort it out themselves eventually. (This has worked for me with my sample size of two children but no judgment if sleep training works for you!)

How old is your baby?

Did them in tandum, worked fine. Kid sleeps all his hours in a grow and hits all his developmental milestones, that said if he was hungry he got fed. So we probably sleep trained 1) 8 hr chunk and then 1 4 hr chunk until I pushed it as he got older. I used huckleberry sleep schedules as a good marker for what was developmentally appropriate

Practice independent time from day 1 and letting them fuss from day 1 so that they do not need sleep training. Night wean when they are getting enough by day.

Night wean first!!! this was the biggest mistake we did with our first - we tried to night wean and sleep train at the same time. Start by gradually spacing out night feedings and comfort during wakeups liberally. Once you're down to just one night feeding, you can tackle the other wakeups.

When I night weaned, the baby slept through the night on his own. Three times. So start there because there may not be a step two.
