What's more, it is said that the baby does not sleep well, but the root cause of each baby's sleep problem is different, such as short naps, night awakenings, difficulty falling asleep, etc.

The key to improving the baby's sleep problem is to prescribe the right medicine, understand the baby's awake time, sleep signals, work and rest characteristics and other information, and then provide targeted guidance. In order to allow babies and parents to have a good night's sleep, Zhu Xiaojie (IPI (former IPMI) certified maternal and infant sleep consultant) combined sleep expertise and her own practical experience in raising babies, and Lilac mother together to create a "sleep book" for 0 3-year-old babies, hoping to help you.

Newborns spend most of their time sleeping, with an average of about 18 22 hours of sleep per day.

Poor sleep in newborns, in general, is associated with a bad spleen and stomach, liver allergies, iron and calcium deficiency. Mothers should be aware of whether their babies are sick, and newborn babies should get the right amount of sunlight to promote calcium absorption and long-term sleep.

Poor sleep quality can affect your baby's development. The baby's transition from the mother's belly to the outside world is a huge change for him. An unfamiliar environment can make him very unsafe, and the new mother needs to take care of it a little more and pay attention to every detail of him so that the baby can sleep better.

Due to individual quality differences, different babies will have different performances. Leave a little light in the baby's room to keep it dim and quiet, which will make the baby secrete the most sleep hormones, and at the same time, let the baby gradually feel the awareness of the night, and gradually adjust the baby's normal sleep clock.

Babies generally have the following reasons for not sleeping well:

1) Normal situation: If the baby is frightened when he falls asleep, but he is sure that he does not wake up, and the baby's growth and development in all aspects is normal, it is a normal phenomenon, and there is no need to worry too much, because the baby's central nervous system excitability is higher, the cerebral cortex is not perfectly developed, and the sleep is shallow.

2) Calcium deficiency: babies are often accompanied by occipital baldness, sweating, irritability, etc. A blood calcium test can be done in the hospital to confirm the diagnosis, and calcium supplementation can also be routinely used to prevent rickets. If it is confirmed that it is really caused by the baby's calcium deficiency, then calcium supplementation is required.

3) Irregular life: such as eating too much before going to bed and being too excited to play during the day.

After that, you can observe whether the baby sleeps longer during the day, whether the environment for sleeping at night is quiet, whether the light is soft and other external environments. It is necessary to adjust the baby's usual schedule appropriately, so that the baby will sleep better at night.

First, prepare your baby for sleep by adjusting his biological clock. Babies don't get enough sleep in the first three months of life. Parents at this time must not change the baby's sleep.

Babies should be breastfed according to their biological clock. This is the right way to develop your baby's sleep habits.

Second, don't fall asleep immediately after breastfeeding. After 3 months of life, the total amount of sleep per day is 14 hours. If your baby sleeps 12 hours at night, you will wake up less often during the night, and your baby will only be able to sleep two or three times during the day.

At this time, mothers should pay attention to feeding their babies or sleeping frequently.

Thirdly, to create a sense of tranquility. Physiologically, the human body secretes a large number of hormones, which can also promote sleep and help grow in a dark environment. Therefore, at night, the mother may wish to leave a little light in the baby's room to keep the home dim and quiet.

This will cause the baby to secrete the most sleep hormones, and at the same time, it will also allow the baby to gradually feel the awareness of the night and gradually adjust the baby's normal sleep clock.

Most of the cases of the baby's sleep are not warm, sleeping naked, wearing clothes with air entering the fart, and cold bare feet, the child is not warm and will not say that it is cold, and will not pull the quilt to cover himself, reflecting that he is insecure, afraid and so on, and he wants to sleep and dare not sleep. Of course, if the baby eats too much, the stomach is cold and he can't sleep well.

Therefore, it is necessary to wrap the baby well but not too heavy, so as not to cause a burden on the baby's body. Babies before the normal age of half a year can sleep 20 hours a day, and the better they sleep, the healthier their development.

The baby does not sleep well, generally it is related to the lack of calcium and the stomach cold, I hope you give the baby to eat cod liver oil, while paying attention to more sun, and then wear a belly pocket for the baby, keep the stomach warm, you can eat probiotics to regulate gastrointestinal function.

Newborns have no sense of security because they are new to the outside world and unfamiliar with the environment, coupled with the rapid development of hearing and vision, a little movement may frighten him, and the quality of sleep may not be good. Keep the original sound in the room, and the child likes it.

You can consider whether it is a calcium deficiency, if it is deficient, it will also cause poor sleep.

The individual's physical constitution is too poor.

The newborn baby lacks basic vitamins or trace elements, and the newborn can can be ailmented with a series of illnesses, such as colds or upper respiratory tract infections, and the newborn does not have enough to eat, and does not adopt the correct feeding method. At this time, parents need to make correct judgments, make corresponding adjustments in time, feed the newborn, and supplement a series of nutrients.

The child's physical development is not sound and the child is not coarse, too many things are covered for the child, the light is too bright, and the environment is too noisy will cause the child to sleep poorly. Before the child goes to bed, the child should be fed in advance, and the curtains should also be closed, and the child should not be covered with a thick quilt so that the child can sleep well on the stool.

Create a good sleeping environment for the baby, don't eat too much before going to bed, you can do proper exercise during the day, give the baby enough security, and gently pat the baby's back.

When the child is sleeping, you should provide a quiet and comfortable environment for the child, avoid noisy surroundings, and choose a comfortable bedding for the child, and try not to dress the child when taking the child to sleep.

Newborn babies do not sleep well, parents must guide their children to a good sleep environment, which can improve the child's eating habits and let the child get a good sleep.

In terms of learning, due to lack of sleep, children have difficulty concentrating in class, even dozing off, and teachers do not listen in class. If you don't listen well in class, it's hard to complete your homework after class. Having difficulty completing homework is destined to stay up late, and staying up late again will lead to sleep deprivation.

It's a vicious circle. Sleep deprivation can also affect health. Many organs are in a state of rest and repair during sleep.

Good sleep quality and adequate sleep time can make all the organs of the body repair well. It's like the repair of cars and machinery. If it is not well repaired in the long term, people's health will be problematic.

Lack of sleep can affect your child's normal development.

Some people say, it's nothing, we have tall genes, and we are not afraid of growing tall. But what about brain development? Do you want the development of the appearance level?

So what about the development of the fertility industry? Also, do you want to wait? Sleep is divided into deep sleep and light sleep, each accounting for 50%, and the later you sleep, the less deep sleep you have.

Growth hormone can only be produced in a state of deep sleep, and growth hormone is related to the development of a child's memory, bones, muscles, and organs, so in order to ensure a deep sleep time, try to ask the child to fall asleep early.

In order to ensure height, normal organs, good memory, no neurasthenia, tall stature. It is explained here that growth hormone can only regulate the speed of physical development, it is neither nutrition nor energy, to ensure normal development, it also needs sufficient quality and quantity of nutrition, but the lack of it will affect development. Due to individual differences, some children have congenital shorter sleep time, but as long as the standards are roughly the same, the body is healthy, and the indicators are normal, it is normal, if the gap is too large, or if there are any adverse reactions, you need to see a doctor.

Develop a good habit for your child to sleep regularly. Do some quiet games before bed, read a story, read a book, or listen to some soothing **. You can drink a glass of milk before going to bed, because calcium deficiency can also lead to poor sleep quality, eat seven or eight tablets for dinner to avoid affecting indigestion sleep,.

Lack of sleep will affect the secretion of growth hormone and affect the growth of height. Reduce the body's immunity, pay attention to whether the baby's diaper is wet, and change his diaper in time when it is wet, so that the baby can sleep with peace of mind!

It will reduce the child's immunity, make the child's mental state bad, affect the child's growth and height, make the child's personality irritable, and affect the development of the brain; You can let him drink a glass of milk before going to bed, let him exercise more during the day, let him sleep in a quieter environment, and listen to some soft songs for him.

It will cause the baby's mental state to deteriorate, which will affect the digestive function, make the baby very weak, cry often, and affect the cardiopulmonary function; You can create a good environment for your baby, gently pat their back, and don't feed them too much milk before bedtime.

The more common cause is calcium deficiency, which is commonly known as vitamin D deficiency rickets, which generally has a higher incidence in winter and spring. Because infants and young children have fewer outdoor activities, the lack of light leads to less vitamin D synthesis, create a good sleeping environment, do not let the baby be too full or hungry before going to bed at a suitable room temperature, and dim the light, so that the baby can easily fall asleep in a quiet environment.

1. Environmental factors: For example, the ambient temperature is too high or too low when sleeping, the quilt is too thin or too thick, the wrapping is too tight or the indoor light is too bright, and the environment is too noisy, which can affect the quality of sleep and lead to poor sleep. At this time, it is necessary to improve the sleeping environment, the indoor temperature is recommended to be between 22-26 when sleeping, the thickness of the quilt should be appropriate, the indoor light should be dimmed as much as possible when sleeping, and the indoor quiet can be improved;

2. Trace element deficiency: observe whether there is a lack of vitamin D or lack of calcium, in addition to unstable sleep, if the child will be accompanied by obvious sweating, occipital baldness, square skull, chicken breast, pectus excavatum, etc., then it is necessary to bask in the sun more, and actively supplement vitamin D and calcium. When vitamin D and calcium are supplemented, the phenomenon of unsteady sleep will be significantly improved;

3. Disease: Some babies do not sleep well in the air, due to their own stuffiness in the disease, such as accompanied by noisy upper breathing and tract infection or accompanied by gastroenteritis, because of physical discomfort, there will also be a phenomenon of not sleeping steadily. At this time, it is necessary to actively ** the primary disease, after removing the primary disease, the body will return to normal, and the phenomenon of unsteady sleep will gradually improve.
