When to quit night milk, how to quit, the core 123 night method to solve the night milk problem

"My baby quit night milk for 2 months and slept all night"

I don't know when to start, before 12 o'clock is confused milk, after 5 o'clock is called morning milk, 12 o'clock to 5 o'clock no night milk is called night milk.

There is really no need to compare with the pursuit of this thing, which will make many mothers very anxious.

Night milk refers to any feeding between falling asleep at night and waking up in the morning for 10-12 consecutive hours.

And when and how to quit night milk, the core 123 night method tells you.

Core 123 Night Method

Core Night Method, core-Night Method, is Gina Ford's night milk solution. It means that if your baby sleeps for a long time for several consecutive nights, then wakes up at that time and stops feeding, trying to soothe the sleep in other ways.

This method has two bugs, the baby's condition is not stable, will be too tough, there will be difficulties in implementation, and it is more controversial.

Second, there is no reference value, if the baby wakes up frequently at night, or is accustomed to drinking night milk at a time, it is difficult to naturally have a long sleep.

So added 123,

1: Core time - 1 hour, subtract an hour on the original method, for example, if you wake up for more than 7 hours for several consecutive days to wake up and ask for night milk, then as long as it exceeds 6 hours, you will give night milk.

2: The reference time is + 2 hours, such as 4 months old + 2 hours, that is, 6 hours, and wake up within 6 hours after falling asleep at night without breastfeeding.

Of course, this is also a reference value, if the baby's eating status and gastrointestinal development are not good, you can also shorten this time. With monthly age + 1 hour or monthly age hour.

3: Feed 3 minutes less (breast milk) or 30ml (milk powder or bottle feeding) gradual reduction method, if the baby's night milk has not been able to extend the time, then reduce the amount of milk a little every day, until there is no wake up can be fed a little water, slowly push the night milk back.

Practical and precautionary

1. Many babies actually drink night milk will be better than the reference value, 2-3 months of continuous sleep for 7-8 hours is very much, even more than 10 hours. Therefore, if the time exceeds the reference value, the time is calculated in the way of -1. Then you can try to extend a little more every 1-2 months.

Of course, if the time exceeds, you can also refer to +2 to set the time, such as a 4-month baby can drink night milk for 8 hours in a row, and 6 (4 + 2) to 8 hours to wake up, you can also feed night milk.

2. If the night milk interval has been very short, those who are accustomed to drinking night milk at a fixed time and want to initially extend the night milk interval will be implemented according to the +2 time.

3. In the process of extending the time, we must insist on it, because the body is accustomed to eating and digestion, the stomach and intestines are also accustomed to working, this needs a period of time to adjust over, if the night milk extension is not good, the baby does not drink enough to make trouble, you can lengthen the adaptation time, every 2-3 days to reduce 3 minutes or 30ml.

4. If the milk sleep is serious, you should first transition to patting sleep, you can use pantry gentle removal method, night milk and milk sleep have no absolute relationship, but it will be difficult to quit night milk when it is dependent on milk sleep. If you accept to sleep in a hug or someone else's sleep, you can also let your father or elders sleep for a while.

5. For more than 9 months, if you want to cut off the night milk at once, it is recommended to take it step by step, use 3 gradual reduction methods, one meal at a time to solve, do not break at once.

Weaning the body also requires a process of adaptation, and I don't recommend using other soothing methods to solve it at once.

6. You can slowly lengthen the night milk time in 6-9 months, and quit night milk in 9-12 months, which is a more appropriate time.

Why is this recommended for night milk treatment?

1. Easy

Theoretically, at 5 months old, feeding night milk after 7 (5 + 2) hours after falling asleep is equivalent to only 1 night milk left in the whole night, which is relatively relaxed.

2. Weaning is simple and easy

In the end, you don't have to deliberately and naturally quit night milk, and it will not be repeated.

Compared with being used to night milk, quitting again, it is easy to sleep unsteadily and wake up frequently.

When I was 9 months old, it was very easy to quit the last night milk in 3 days.

3. Good eating condition during the day

Some people will choose to give the baby a confused milk before the adult goes to sleep, so that both the adult and the child can sleep better at night.

Erbao I also do this, because I am afraid that I will disturb my brother's sleep, so when he wakes up when I want to sleep, I will directly feed the milk, and then it will become a habit.

Remember what I said before about eating also has a biological clock for eating, just like those who are used to eating supper will have the habit of eating supper.

After 3 months, melatonin begins to be secreted, the baby begins to control the circadian rhythm, and sleep begins to concentrate at night. The amount of time spent resting without eating also begins to increase and concentrate.

At the beginning of 4-5 months, it was found that night milk has begun to affect the daytime milk drinking situation, and by 8 months to start changing the night milk, the situation is two night milks at night, and when you wake up in the morning to 12 o'clock, you are almost not hungry and do not eat.

In such a case, the biological clock of the obvious feeding is reversed day and night.

As the age of the month increases, the time of feeding night milk is slowly extended, and the eating situation during the day will be much better.

Night milk drink a lot, the daytime eating situation is very poor to pay attention to, try to see if you control the amount of night milk, see if you can improve the daytime eating. Don't always feel that you don't eat well during the day, so drink more at night, which will be a vicious circle.

It is really not recommended that adults feed confused milk before going to bed, especially after 3 months, when they finally want to quit, either they become restless and unstable, or they do not use night milk between the original confused milk and wake up in the morning, and they need night milk again.

Joe's dad's broken thoughts

I just happened to see a comment, "In fact, there are many similar ways to quit night milk, but Gina Ford gave him a name." ”

I shared this for a long time, at that time I had not yet started to learn, and I did not know that this was called the core night method, just the same way as I used.

In fact, many sleep adjustment methods are gathered by the experience and research of countless people, and many experts have similar adjustment methods.

I have no innovation, nor can I be separated from the foundations of spiritualism, behavior, and psychology, and the most I can do is to add my own experience to make some changes and integrations on these foundations, so that he is more suitable for us.

In fact, making up a name is only for easy promotion, just like EASY, it is easier to spread.

In addition, those who oppose the abstinence of night milk, I will not talk about the harm of night milk in this article, lalala!

But in fact, as the child matures, he slowly does not need to eat at night, which is undeniable, and continuous breastfeeding will only affect the child's sleep and development.
