Recently, Ah Xian’s colleague always comes to work every morning with a panda eye. Those who don’t know think that his colleague was accidentally slapped in the eye.
is actually because her colleague has suffered severe sleep deficiency recently, because the baby has not known why he has been sleeping late at night.
I had already fallen asleep at seven or eight o'clock, but I was still very energetic when it was time to go to bed recently.
If the baby doesn't sleep, the colleagues can't sleep. They play with their children until late every night, but they have to come to the company to work very early the next morning, so they are in a very poor mental state and have very deep dark circles. Others in the office joke about their colleague's panda eyes.
In fact, about coaxing children to sleep is basically a problem that every mother will encounter during parenting. Few babies will sleep obediently every day.
When the baby is in the infant stage, he needs sufficient sleep every day, so naturally there is no need to coax the baby to sleep at this stage.
But when the baby's age gradually grows, becomes more active and does not have such a large demand for sleep, it will become difficult to coax the baby to sleep.
So today Axian will teach you mothers how to quickly coax your baby to sleep and let the baby sleep until dawn, and no longer have to stay up late with the baby.
Babies are reluctant to fall asleep for a long time, which is mostly related to these reasons
When facing various problems during parenting, parents must first find out the reasons for the problems.
For example, if the baby is reluctant to sleep for a long time, this is very likely because the baby sleeps too much during the day, and mothers can also find the reasons in the environment in which the baby sleeps.
① Sleep too much during the day
Now many families like to ask their nanny to help take care of their children at home, and those nanny usually like to let their children sleep when doing housework.
Because this way, you can do housework with peace of mind, and you can also steal for a while and take a break. Therefore, such children are sleeping most of the time during the day.
I believe all mothers have a deep understanding as adults. If you sleep too much sleep during the day in , especially when you take a nap and sleep too long, will not fall asleep easily at night.
The same is true for babies, so if the family asks the nanny to help take care of the children, mothers must give them advice in advance and let the nanny take care of the children during the day.
② Holding the baby to sleep for a long time
Axian learned that most mothers like to hold the child in their arms when they are coaxing their children to sleep first, and then put the child on the bed to sleep after the child is already asleep.
In fact, Axian doesn't agree with this approach. Although this can make the child fall asleep quickly, it is often difficult for them to sleep until dawn, and it is easy to wake up in the middle of the way after sleeping for a few hours. In this way, mothers have to get up in the middle of the night to coax their children to bed.
Because mothers hold their children in their arms for a long time, they are used to such a sleeping environment. If they put their children in bed and sleep, they will become sensitive and easily wake up because of some external sounds.
③Emotional anxiety
Some babies sleep with their parents for several months from birth, because some parents think it is convenient to take care of their children at night.
When the child grows up, parents will let the child sleep alone in the crib. When this part of the baby starts to sleep in the crib, they will be very anxious and difficult to fall asleep.
Because when the baby is sleeping with his parents, the smell emitted by the parents will give the child a feeling of peace of mind and it is very easy to fall asleep. However, when the baby is suddenly letting the baby sleep alone in the crib, these familiar and safe smells that can bring the child a sense of security will be gone.
Babys who have been in a state of insufficient sleep for a long time may have various minor problems
Although difficulty in falling asleep is a common problem, this does not mean that parents can ignore it, because sleep is very important to children, especially those children under one year old. The most important thing for them to sleep seriously during the period from zero to one year old is to sleep seriously.
Because this period is the golden period of their development, if the baby is in a state of sleep for a long time and the quality is not good, it will bring various bad effects to the baby.
⑴The baby’s emotions are affected
The most intuitive influence is that if the baby does not sleep well the night before, he will obviously feel that the baby’s emotions will fluctuate easily during the day the next day, or he will be very unstimulating.
Usually when they are teasing babies, they will interact with their mothers with a smile, but if they don’t sleep well at night, they will easily cry the next day, and some loud noises from the outside may scare the child.
⑵The body develops slowly
Just now we said that babies develop very quickly before the age of one year. At the same time, the time when babies grow up is actually the time when they go to bed every night.
Therefore, if the baby is in a situation where he is in a situation where he lacks sleep or has low quality of sleep for a long time, it will have a great hindrance to the development of his body. Compared with other children of the same age, those children with poor sleep quality will obviously feel that their figure is shorter.
⑶Reduced memory and immunity
For us adults, if we stay up late for a long time and lack sleep, our immunity and memory will decrease accordingly, especially for babies.
In fact, babies aged 0-3 are slowly building a comprehensive immune system at this time. If they always have a period of time to sleep well, their immunity will decrease accordingly, and their ability to resist various diseases of all sizes will decrease.
In addition, lack of sleep will also affect the development of the brain, which will also affect the child's memory.
Parents master these 3 super practical sleep coaxing techniques to ensure that the baby can sleep until dawn
Baby's sleep problems must pay attention to it, because only when the baby's sleep is good can it develop well and can grow up healthily. Below are some practical sleep coaxing techniques, and novices can quickly collect and reserve it for use.
Reasonable use of different sounds
I don’t know if mothers like to listen to some light music when sleeping, because music can relax and attract people’s attention. So moms can make the most of their sound to help their babies fall asleep.
For example, sing some lullaby for your baby and sing lullaby while your baby is sleeping. It is the most widely circulated way to coax your baby to sleep. When the mother sings next to the baby, it will give the baby a very stable feeling.
When the baby falls asleep, remember not to make any more noise, because the baby is originally sensitive to the external environment, and some more noise may disturb the baby.
So it is recommended that the baby's room should be farther away from the living room, toilet, and kitchen. After all, people often walk around in these places.
Appropriate touch of the baby
Just now we talked about the smell emitted by mothers, which will make the baby feel particularly at ease and sleep more peacefully, so mothers should make full use of this to coax the baby to fall asleep.
For those babies who have just started to sleep in the crib by themselves, mothers can sit next to them and stroke the baby appropriately with their hands, so that the baby can sleep under the smell of the mother. At the same time, mothers can also put some of their close-fitting clothes in their baby's crib .
When mothers touch their babies, they must remember not to use too much force, nor to touch those more sensitive parts, because this will easily wake up the baby. When touching, you can gently touch the baby's cheeks, or draw a circle clockwise around the baby's navel, or gently pat the baby's back.
Provides a comfortable sleeping environment for the baby
First of all, mothers can prepare a warm swaddle for the baby to imitate the environment of uterus . Because the baby lives in his mother's uterus before he was born, he stayed for ten months and was very familiar with the uterus environment and felt safe.
So mothers can provide a uterus-like environment for the baby , so that the baby will feel friendly and will sleep more easily.
When the baby is older and is not so sensitive to the outside world, he no longer needs swaddle clothes. At the same time, the fabric for making swaddling clothes must be soft, because the baby's skin is more sensitive, so mothers are best to choose some bedding suitable for babies.
written at the end
When the baby has high-quality sleep, mothers will find that the baby's body will gradually become healthy, not only sleep soundly, but also eat well, but also the body's development will gradually become faster.
When the baby is still young, mothers naturally have to coax the baby to sleep, but when the baby grows up, mothers can try to let the baby coax himself to sleep. This is also a skill that babies need to master when going to kindergarten in the future. Cultivating the baby's independent living ability from an early age will only benefit but not harm the baby's future development.
