Because babies are relatively small, they are a little scared to sleep after turning off the lights. Therefore, many parents choose to turn on the lights to lull them to sleep. Or leave a night light on all night! Although turning on the lights can give the baby a certain sense of security and make it much more convenient to take care of the baby, do parents know that sleeping with the lights on also has a certain impact on the baby's growth?
First of all, it affects the quality of sleep
If you turn on the light while sleeping, it will cause light sleep! Let the baby not sleep well and wake up easily! Over time, it will naturally affect the baby's normal development.
If you really must turn on the lights, parents can choose a dim night light and turn it off when the baby falls asleep.
Secondly, it affects the development of vision
Lighting will keep the baby's eye muscles and nerves in a state of tension, and the pupils will not get a good rest, which will naturally affect the development of vision in the long run.
Furthermore, let the baby turn black and white upside down
and keep the light on, so that the baby cannot tell whether it is day or dark. Maybe they just sleep during the day and wake up at night. If the parent corrects the situation after black and white are reversed, the baby will express: unconvinced!
Finally, the baby's immunity declines.
Melatonin will stop secreting when exposed to light. Melatonin is helpful in promoting the improvement of the baby's immunity and bone development, so sleeping with the light on will prevent the baby's body from getting sufficient nutrients. Rest and adjustment may lead to decreased resistance.
