2nd time Mommy to 7 month old girl says:
They are both on nap and sleep schedules for my sanity and theirs. I would tell new parents that once the newborn honeymoon is over (you know, when the baby stays awake for longer than an hour or so at a time), then they have to start teaching their baby how to sleep and to stick with it. When you feel they are old enough to learn how to self-soothe, then start sleep training them.
