The moment of the old mother's daily collapse, there is definitely an option for the baby to wake up at night. Behind every "sleeping dregs" baby, there is a "panda" mother.
Poor parents in the world, who doesn't want to say goodbye to the "sleeping scum" baby? Isn't it nice to "sleep until dawn"? Why can't babies sleep well?
Why does your baby wake up at night?
1. Sleep environment factors
Temperature, dry humidity, noise, etc. will affect the quality of your baby's sleep. If it gets too hot, your baby will wake up from the heat.
It is generally recommended that the room temperature be kept at 24-26 degrees in summer and around 20-24 degrees in winter. It is recommended that the mother touch the back of the baby's neck before going to bed, if sweating proves that it is too much to wear.
A quiet environment is also a necessary condition for the baby to sleep well. The baby sleeps a lot of time, although it is not recommended that the whole family accommodate the baby, and walk quietly all day long, but the relatively quiet environment should be guaranteed.
2. Baby's own factors
If the baby feels uncomfortable, such as flatulence, intestinal colic, etc., it will also cause night wake-up. Because when this happens, the baby's physiological response changes, this change breaks the previous body balance, it is easy to cause waking up in the middle of the night.
3. Falling asleep too late and overstimulating
Many mothers have a misunderstanding:
If your baby is tired enough, he will sleep well. So it's okay to let your baby play longer and sleep a little later.
Babies are to be fully active "discharged", but for babies under 4 months, they do not have the ability to block information that is not related to sleep, nor do they have the energy to pick out information related to falling asleep from various stimuli.
If they are always in a state of excitement, even if the baby is very sleepy, they will be "forced" to wake up, and even if they fall asleep, they will have many dreams. Even for children over 3 years old, excessive stimulation before bedtime may cause your baby to wake up in the middle of the night.
So, what should be done so that both your baby and mom and dad who have broken their hearts can get a good night's sleep? The following knowledge points are worth Mark!
Develop a regular daytime routine
Try to cultivate good habits of the baby's work and rest, and also try to ensure the amount of food to avoid the baby will wake up hungry in the middle of the night because he is not full during the day.
Avoid excessive fatigue in your baby
If the baby is too tired, it will also wake up at night, then you can help the baby massage before going to bed, and properly relaxing the muscles can effectively improve the baby's sleep quality.
Gradually reduce the number of feedings
Many mothers will feed their babies without saying a word when they wake up at night, but this is not necessarily the right thing to do. Gradually reduce the number of feedings, try to take it out when feeding to the confused, leaving room to try to fall asleep on your own; at relatively easy points to fall asleep, such as just fed an hour ago, it is better to replace strong soothing (including milk) with soothing (short hug, patting).
Raising a baby is no small matter. Who would have thought that the little ancestor could adjust every link of his "eating, drinking, and sleeping" to the "HARD" mode to exercise his parents?
But as long as parents carefully explore the rules and patiently deal with the baby's night wake-up problem, it is not a dream to say goodbye to the "sleeping scum" baby to sleep well.
