Babies And Bedtime Obsessiveness

If the baby is very small, is a new born baby then it is accepted that he will get up many times at night. But in case of older babies, it is not an acceptable bedtime practice.

It is very frustrating for the mother if the baby goes to sleep after a great deal of effort and then keeps waking up frequently.

It is a big achievement for the mother if the baby sleeps uninterrupted throughout the night.

However, if the baby is not sleeping well then you must start thinking about his day time activities and how these are affecting his sleeping pattern.

The baby’s biological clock is not yet set up and if you don’t set a routine for them they find it difficult to settle down at bedtime.

Thus you must follow a fixed bedtime pattern.

They automatically begin to understand when they are supposed to play and when to sleep and so on.

When they are small we help them by setting a routine and we follow the routine as far as possible.

For instance, in the mornings they can learn that it is bath, then feed, and then play.

At evening they can learn that a story, feed and then lullaby is bedtime routine.

Thus, if you follow this pattern for a while then the kids start remembering it.

You must also keep track of the times your baby has slept during the day.

The baby may not go to bed at night because he may not be tired enough.

You must play sufficiently with the baby to make them tired by the end of the day.

You must also help them discover new things and stimulate them during the day.

If you are not doing so, then you may have to change your own habits.

The baby will then sleep soundly at night.

It varies with the age of the baby, but in any case he must not take long naps during the day.

A baby who is of few months of age should at the most sleep for half an hour.

The new born must sleep for a longer period of time.

You should not allow the baby to sleep as much as he wants during the day if you do so you are sure to have problems at bedtime.

It is good for the baby if you can take them somewhere during the day.

You may take the little one to your friend’s house, or to a park or even to the shopping mall.

The baby loves the change and is stimulated too.

It is something great for them when they see new things and the effort is tiring for them.

Thus, they sleep well at night.

With the passage of time their bed time fussiness will go away and you will not have to bother about it anymore.

That is the best part of it all.
