For bao mom, when is the most relaxed, it is definitely the time after the baby falls asleep, this time bao mom does not have to stay by the baby's side all the time, can be free to do some other things.
But the baby does not seem to be so easy to let the mother idle, want to let the baby sleep a long sleep is not an easy thing, many times, the baby always sleep for 10 minutes or 20 minutes will wake up, which will make the mother feel very distressed.
The baby often sleeps "short sleep", and the mother can't stand it
These days received a mother's consultation, is about the baby sleeping, the mother said: their baby always sleep "short sleep", and after waking up, the mother is not sure whether to continue to sleep.
My advice to this mother is to see the state of the baby after waking up, but in order to better grasp the method of receiving sleep, this mother almost every day to give me a live broadcast of the baby's sleeping state, once the baby has a movement, she asked me on the minute line whether I want to pick up this situation?
This mother's anxiety can really be transmitted to me across the screen. In fact, for the baby's sleep, there are indeed many places that confuse new mothers. For example, when the bud nurse mother first became a mother, she would not know how to deal with the problem of whether the baby should sleep after falling asleep.
Presumably, this stage of "ultra-short sleep" will be experienced by every mother, so after the baby wakes up, will he continue to coax the baby to sleep? How can you better connect your baby's sleep?
Reception, as the name suggests, is to let the baby sleep, rather than waking up completely, so why should the baby sleep?
Why the emphasis on the importance of "enlightenment"?
This is because it is difficult for babies of small months to fall asleep on their own, often wake up from sleep, and wake up after twenty minutes of confusion, often such sleep time is not enough to sleep.
Sleep is divided into five stages, namely the beginning of falling asleep, light sleep, deep sleep, deep sleep period past, and easy to wake up.
And small month-old babies, it is in the 10-20 minutes of light sleep stage, they often sleep lightly, breathing unevenly, and even small eyes will secretly observe, a little movement, will wake up from sleep.
Babies before the age of 1 need a lot of sleep every day to ensure physical development, especially the smaller the baby, the longer the sleep time is needed, so it is very important to sleep.
If you want to judge whether your child still needs to sleep after waking up, it mainly depends on the state of the baby after waking up
After the baby's short sleep, parents do not know how to deal with it, may wish to observe the baby's state, and then decide that the next step is to continue to let the baby sleep.
If the baby wakes up is confused, and the eyes are not fully open, this time can continue to observe; if the baby wakes up and can sleep on its own, then the parents do not need to go forward to coax; if the baby has been completely awake, or even began to cry, then the parents need to go to sleep; of course, if the baby has completely woken up, and the spirit is full, there is no crying, indicating that the baby sleeps well, there is no need for the parents to let the child continue to sleep;
Of course, these situations refer to the daytime, if it is at night, the baby wakes up after sleeping, then the parents must comfort the baby to continue to sleep, no matter what the baby's state, to ensure that the baby sleeps at night.
Because the night is used for rest, if the baby sleeps badly at night, it is bound to have a lot of time to make up for sleep during the day, and it will not wake up, and a vicious circle will be formed in the long run, which is not conducive to the growth and development of the child.
Proper reception can help your baby grow their sleep cycle, while wrong reception can cause sleep problems
1) Early intervention
When you see that the baby's body begins to move, tap the baby, hum a song, or pick up and walk around, this time the baby is still in a confused state, this kind of safe comfort, often easier to pick up success.
2) Dare to give up
If repeated sleep failure, or more than 30 minutes of sleep have not been successful, then you may wish to take a little buddhist system, give up the cycle of sleep, and re-enter a sleep cycle in half an hour or so.
It is worth noting that the wrong way of receiving sleep may bury the hidden dangers of sleep problems, such as too much advance coaxing, it is possible to really wake up the baby, frequent sleep so that the baby can not learn to fall asleep on its own, excessive sleep will make the baby sleep too much during the day, do not sleep at night or frequent night wake up problems.
Bud Care Mom wants to say:
Sleep is a "double-edged sword", use well to help the baby improve sleep, but use the wrong one, it will cause new sleep problems, parents should be cautious about using.
