Observe the suggestive behavior of sleepiness

When the baby is sleepy, it will send out suggestive messages, such as rubbing his eyes and yawning. Nurse Xue suggested that parents can observe 1 ~ 2 weeks continuously to understand the baby's physiological work and rest, and then make appropriate sleep time, and cultivate their habit of falling asleep when the baby is prone to drowsiness, which will achieve faster results and avoid parents' frustration.

(2) Light suggests that parents can use bright and dim light to help their baby distinguish the environmental differences between waking and sleeping, and remind parents to draw curtains during the day to reduce the light, turn off the indoor lights at night, and leave only one nightlight for night visits, so that if the baby wakes up in the middle of the night, it will not be easy to feel scared.

(3) Establish a regular bedtime

Before the baby goes to bed 1 hour, a series of rituals can be started, such as bathing, drinking milk, brushing teeth, changing into pajamas, telling bedtime stories, listening to music, saying good night, etc. Through regular bedtime rituals, it is equivalent to giving instructions to the baby to help the baby naturally develop the cognition of falling asleep.

Just because you don't hug or shake doesn't mean you don't give comfort at all. After all, babies at this stage still need the care of their parents. Intimate parent-child relationship is also positive for their psychological development, but the way of comfort should be to help them get used to falling asleep.

(5) gradually shorten personal companionship.

Whether it is a newborn or a baby who is used to being coaxed, it is suitable to gradually shorten the company time to help the baby learn the ability to fall asleep independently. At first, parents can take the form of lying and hugging, supplemented by verbal and physical comfort. After the baby gets used to it, they will gradually shorten the company time and physical contact, such as sleeping together at first and slowly pulling away from the body, with the ultimate goal of separating the bed or room.

(6) Don't let fear accompany your baby to sleep.

Although there are many benefits to letting the baby sleep by himself, it is still not suitable to use too radical methods to avoid the baby being disturbed by the tense atmosphere and making it more difficult to sleep; In the process of baby learning to fall asleep, we should adhere to the attitude of not scolding and not pressing, so as to avoid leaving an unpleasant shadow in the baby's heart.
