Sleep Tracking Guide
Monitor your baby's sleep patterns with the smart timer and detailed analytics.
Sleep Timer
The sleep timer is your primary tool for tracking sleep sessions:
- Start Sleeping Now: Click when your baby falls asleep. The start time is saved immediately.
- Wake Up: Click when your baby wakes up. The system calculates total sleep duration.
- Expected Duration: Optionally set an expected nap duration to help with planning.
Offline Tip: The sleep timer works offline. If you start sleep without internet, the timer runs locally and syncs when you reconnect.
Sleep Quality
Baby Tracker automatically categorizes sleep quality based on duration and time of day:
- Peaceful: Sleep sessions longer than 2.5 hours or night sleep (7 PM - 7 AM).
- Restless: Daytime naps between 45 minutes and 2.5 hours.
- Interrupted: Short sleep bursts under 45 minutes.
Sleep Goals by Age
The app provides age-appropriate sleep recommendations:
- Newborn (0-3 months): 16-18 hours total sleep
- Infant (4-11 months): 12-16 hours total sleep
- Toddler (1-2 years): 11-14 hours total sleep
