The first four months of a baby's life are very important to get the baby to acquire good sleep habits. At this stage, the baby needs, in addition to affection and care, to sleep and be fed; It's that simple. His sleep is as irregular as his diet, so he needs to be educated.
Baby's dream from the womb
Each parent has an opinion about how to deal with the subject of sleep with their baby, but few know that this issue can be agreed upon from when the baby is still in the womb. In the mother's womb, a seven-month-old baby already responds to the stimuli that come from outside, that is, to the lights, sounds, songs and caresses. It is important, at this stage, that mothers observe what calms their baby and guide their sleep according to their hours of rest, singing a lullaby, talking to him or doing a gut massage, etc.
Sleep habits of the baby in the womb
The sleeping habits of the baby in the womb should be transferred abroad after birth. Says Dr. Eduard Estivill in his latest book and in an exclusive interview with Guiainfantil.com. The baby is about 20-30 minutes awake in the womb and then spontaneously falls asleep. When the baby is born, it is advisable to take advantage of the time that the baby is nursing to keep him awake with small caresses or talking to him. Thus, you can get the child to associate being awake with food.
After eating, it is advisable to have it 10-15 minutes in your arms and incorporated to remove the air that has been swallowed and to avoid colic. Then you have to change it and put it in the crib again, always awake. If this is done, the baby will learn to sleep from the first day, or rather, he will not unlearn what he already does in his mother's belly in a natural way. The baby sleeps alone when it is still in its mother's womb.
A newborn baby sleeps an average of 17 hours a day, in 6 or 7 different periods and when he is tired. How to know? Well observing signs such as restlessness, yawning, loss of interest in the game or a 'lost' look. Moms also need to be aware that babies pick up not only outside sounds and lights, but also their mood, both during pregnancy and after delivery. What supposes that a mother who feels insecure or nervous to make her baby sleep, will be transmitting all this anxiety for her little one with what will be more difficult to get to sleep. Something to keep in mind, right?
