Lest we forget, those of you who give birth prior to your due date (especially those of you who insist on giving birth to preemies) and those of you who have little ones who come into the world a little unwell (whether it's jaundice, reflux or something more serious) can expect the calendar for sleeping to be pushed back even a bit more.
If your bun came out of the oven too soon, remember to count developmental age from his or her due date, not from the birth date. And don't expect consistent sleep if your Muffin is battling a medical condition, whether the condition is short-term or long-term.
Sorry for the tough love: no one understands sleep deprivation like a sleep technologist, since it is a job hazard for us. Sometimes, though, knowing what to expect is half the battle.
