Developing a newborn's sleep schedule may seem impossible to a new mom who can barely remember what day of the week it is, but the fact is training your baby to sleep through the night is easier than you might think.

The key to discovering your newborn’s sleep pattern lies in recognizing the last word in that phrase as the most important; in order to formulate a baby sleep schedule, you must first develop a sleep pattern.

Before attempting to uncover infant sleep patterns and problems, parents must first comprehend the importance of sleep itself. Sleep, or the lack of this precious commodity, is one of the most significant influences on a healthy life. Sleep is critically important during the first year because the human growth hormone is released during deep sleep.

The research is in: most teens get 25-33 percent less sleep than they need. Anyone not getting enough sleep has difficulty focusing, reasoning, driving safely, learning and working. As a parent, it's important that you and your spouse are educated about this topic to help establish healthy habits in your teen who can go on to achieve their full potential.

Most researchers agree that many of the common traits of adolescence—moodiness, impulsiveness, disengagement and depression, even obesity—are symptoms of chronic sleep deprivation.

Do you find yourself frustratedly stuck in the same patterns? You may not even notice it’s a pattern. However, if you spend some time to think on it, you’ll see a pattern. We all have them.

Maybe it’s a tired argument with your partner/spouse. Perhaps it’s a certain frustrating dynamic between you and someone else. How about this one? You want to get something done but you decide to take a peek at social media… and 2 hours later… nothing is done.
