[quote=Anonymous]To me wake windows = watch the time and the cues to try to avoid an extremely tired baby. You can do this whether you’re contact napping or putting baby in a crib! Another way I think of it: keeping track of wake windows helps me know when to watch my baby more closely for sleep cues. My babies both primarily slept in contact naps from around 2-4 months and then we gradually got them to nap in a crib (it seemed developmental for both of them). Both slept well in the crib at night during this period, pretty much only waking to eat (all the usual - blackout curtains, tight swaddle, bedtime routine, bedtime when they were tired (using wake windows and paying attention to cues)).
