5. Keeps the baby from getting too tired
Most people tend to believe that the more tired they are, the more likely they are to sleep well. But the reality is the complete opposite of this popular belief. In fact, what happens if your baby is too tired is that he or she won’t sleep much, or the quality of his or her sleep will be poor.
That’s why a nap during the day is so important, so don’t take it out of the program if you want your baby to sleep through the night.
