This is a sentence that Jing Mama often advises when she goes to the countryside to do science popularization for her mothers.
When Jing Mama went to the countryside to do science for her mothers and grandmothers, she found that some children like to feed food and porridge during the day, but children often drink night milk at night.
Some children are more than one year old, and they have to get up 2 to 3 times at night to drink night milk, milk is drunk quickly, but the height of the child has been affected, the length is not high, and the reaction is relatively slow!
That's because the child doesn't sleep well when drinking night milk at night, the gastrointestinal tract needs to be digested when the child drinks night milk, and it will also make him wake up when drinking night milk, and it will take a long time to fall asleep again, which will directly affect the child's sleep!
Think of your child sleeping about 18 hours a day in the neonatal period, and he grows and develops the fastest in the neonatal period, and the more the child sleeps, the faster he grows.
Sleeping well will not only make the child grow taller, but also make the child's brain respond faster, and also make the child's brain accept things faster and become smarter.
On the contrary, if the child sleeps badly, it will directly affect the secretion of growth hormone, which will directly lead to the child's height growth being hindered, and will also lead to the child's slow response during the day because of lack of sleep, affecting the child's learning and affecting the child's brain development.
If you want your child to sleep well, in addition to giving your child enough time to sleep and let your child go to bed early, it is more important to avoid doing something that will hinder your child's sleep two hours before going to bed.
Doing 4 things before going to bed will affect the quality of the child's sleep, affect the child's brain development, and the mother will quickly close it
Thing #1: Eat
Before the age of two, because the stomach capacity is relatively small, and it is more milk, so the child will often eat before going to bed.
However, after the child turns two years old, he eats more during the day, and drinking milk 2 to 3 times a day can meet the needs of growth and development, so it is recommended that the child not eat two hours before going to bed, nor drink milk.
Because the child eats or drinks milk two hours before going to bed, the child will let the gastrointestinal tract still work when sleeping, and the child's gastrointestinal work will affect the child's sleep.
If the child sleeps badly, the secretion of growth hormone will be affected, it will affect the growth of height, the child sleeps badly, and the response decreases during the day, which will affect the child's brain development.
Thing 2: Your child exercises vigorously
Xiao Feng heard that the child jump rope can grow tall, every night the child went home to eat more than an hour later to let the child jump rope on the balcony for 15 minutes, but she found that the child jumped for a month, not only did not grow tall, but found that the child always dozed off and wanted to sleep.
It turns out that when the child jumps the rope, it is generally 8:30 p.m., and the child goes to bed at 9:30.
That is to say, an hour before going to bed is still vigorous exercise, the child's entire muscle has not yet recovered, the brain is more excited, so the quality of the child's sleep at night will become worse.
Therefore, if you want your child to sleep well at night, do not do strenuous exercise before going to bed, and do not play some more intense activities with your child.
Don't show your child some martial arts movies or action movies, which will lead to more excitement in the child's brain, and the quality of sleep at night will be affected.
Thing 3: Criticize the child
Now many parents are conscientious because they want to raise children, and overtime has become the norm.
Usually in the morning, I am more anxious to send my children to school, and I can only see my children when I come back at night, and if there is anything, I will criticize and educate my children at night.
If the child is criticized and accused two hours before going to bed, his mood will be relatively low, and his whole mood will be affected.
If the child is criticized before going to bed, he is prone to nightmares at night, which will also affect the child's sleep.
Therefore, if you want your child to grow taller, if you want your child's brain to be smarter, try to keep your child in a good mood before going to bed, and don't criticize and blame your child.
Thing 4: Turn on the night lights at night
Not long ago, there was a 7-year-old girl in Changsha, Hunan Province, whose breasts had begun to develop, and her mother was particularly nervous, so she took the child to see a doctor.
The doctor said that the child had shown signs of precocious puberty, and when tracking down the culprit of the child's precocious puberty, it was found that it was caused by a small night light.
Long-term use of small night lights will lead to a decrease in the secretion of melatonin in the pineal gland, so that the inhibition of the gonadal axis will be weakened, which will promote the early start of the gonadal axis, so it will lead to the early development of sexual development, and there will be precocious puberty.
The child's precocious puberty will affect the child's height, causing the child to grow taller, but the final height will be shorter.
If you want your child to grow taller and smarter, don't do the above 4 things two hours before bedtime.
