Babies often cry, jump to wake up at night
and don’t sleep deeply… Parents often lack this knowledge, so it leads to the following
problems.
Many parents complain that their children
often sleep less, sleep fitfully and have severe sleep at night. Although many
people show them about how to comfort lull babies, all of them aren’t
affective.
Actually, babies often cry, jump to wake up
at night and don’t sleep deeply… … Parents often lack this knowledge, so it
leads to the following problems. Some parents have blamable mistakes before and
after letting babies sleep without knowing.
1. Not setting up fixed time for babies to sleep
If children sleep on time and have enough
sleep, they will grow faster than children with the same age but lack sleep.
According to a recent research, nowadays, babies that are 2 years old sleep 40
minutes less than their parents in the past. This thing is harmful to
development of brain and physicality of children.
Pediatric medicine experts advise that you
should make schedule for babies to sleep and parents themselves have to obey
strictly. You shouldn’t wait until babies rub their eyes or yawn, then you let
them sleep. At that time, babies will feel sleep very much. Only sleeping early
15 or 20 minutes will also create a big difference.
Pediatric
medicine experts advise that you should make schedule for babies to sleep.
2. Ignoring baby’s yawn
Rubbing eyes, slow gesture, ignoring
favorite toys are baby’s message which implies “I am sleepy, let me sleep”.
However, many parents don’t pay attention to those signs. And you are indifferent
to ignore golden time to lull babies
When babies feel asleep, if you don’t lull them,
their body will secrete melatonin that can ease tiredness. When babies are tired,
they will continuously cry, be difficult to sleep, not sleep deeply and feel
stress…
3. Holding in your arms and swaying to lull babies
When many mothers see that babies don’t
sleep and cry, they hold in their arms and sway all night. This isn’t negative behavior;
however, if mothers do that regularly, babies will depend on mothers’ arms. It
means that mothers put babies cradle smoothly to let them sleep, when they wake
up, they will cry and make racket because they aren’t on their mothers’ soft
hands.
When
babies cry and don’t sleep, holding them in arms and swaying all night aren’t
completely good for them.
Loving babies, mothers let babies learn how
to ease and lull when they wake up. You shouldn’t lose your head and come
beside babies, to comfort when they babble to wheedle.
4. Letting babies move from cradle to bed too early
This is a classic mistake of parents!
When children are 2 years old, many parents
move them from cradle to bed too early. But at night when you move them, they
toss and turn all night without sleeping. In addition, they wake up when lamp
is turned off or wake up when there is a smooth noise.
Why so? Before 3 years old, many children
aren’t ready to sleep alone on a big bed. They cannot be conscious and control
bound between bed and cradle. Wait until they are 3 years old, then think about
letting babies sleep on bed. If babies have difficulty in sleeping alone on
bed, you can let them have more time to adjust.
5. Putting babies on any places if possible
Many scientists affirm: letting babies
sleep in moving state – sleep in buggy or car won’t make them sleep deeply and
it’s difficult to restore sleep because of stimulation of moving.
Many
women are familiar with letting babies sleep in buggy.
Therefore, to help babies sleep deeply and
not cry between sleeps, parents should put them on a familiar place that has
smooth light quiet for babies.
6. Lacking consistence
Sometimes, when babies cannot sleep, parents
should lie next to them until they sleep. Or, you can sleep with them at
midnight…
Many parents don’t take interest when their
children sleep with them. But normally, the whole family sleeps together on a
narrow bed. Parents should give clear and unified rule to children about
sleeping position. For example, at night, if babies ask to sleep on the same
bed with their parents, wait until they sleep and smoothly hold them back to
their bed.
7. Feeding babies at night
At night, many mothers are woken to give
babies breast, this thing makes them awake while they are having a good sleep. When
this habit is formed, it will make babies be familiar with sleep. After that,
in weaning time, they will wake up at midnight to eat.
To overcome this habit, you should give
them breast at night when they cry and after sucking. You should let children
sleep by themselves without holding and lulling them because they will depend
on these actions of parents.

8. Turning on the light when babies are sleeping
To babies and newborn babies, strong light
will make eyesight weak and make development of newborn baby’s eyesight
paralytic. Hence, when babies are sleeping, parents shouldn’t turn light on,
except for necessary cases.
