What are the benefits of baby sleep?

After the baby is born, we often find that the baby basically spends the whole time sleeping. In fact, sleep is helpful for the baby. It can help inhibit and promote the development of intelligence and improve IQ. Let us introduce the specific benefits of baby sleep.

First, it has obvious intellectual benefits

Sleep has a very obvious effect on babies' intelligence and promotes their intellectual development. Studies have shown that babies who sleep better have better IQ development. For older children, sleep has a very good effect on their memory, creativity, and mental state.

Second, it has the effect of promoting the growth and development of the baby

Studies have shown that about 70% of growth hormone is secreted during deep sleep at night. Some children have very poor sleep. After three months to six months, their height will gradually deviate. This is caused by sleep disorders and insufficient secretion of growth hormone. Of course, diet, exercise, etc. also have an impact on height and weight, but sleep is also a very important factor.

Third, sleep has the function of storing energy

Sleep has the function of storing energy, that is, storing energy for the human body to complete daytime activities. Sleep also has a great impact on emotional state. Whether it is a baby or an older child, if they lack sleep or have poor sleep quality, they will become irritable, restless, have behavioral disorders, memory loss, reduced mobility, and are prone to accidental injuries. So good sleep is very important for children.
