What is the sleep time of the baby after one month?

We all know that newborns spend most of their time sleeping. However, only by ensuring adequate sleep can the baby grow more healthily. Many inexperienced parents will find that the baby is still sleeping all day after one month, which will make them particularly worried. They wonder if there is something wrong with the baby. Let’s take a look at the baby’s sleep time after one month.

What is the sleep time of the baby after one month?

1. Sleep for at least 20-22 hours

Babies in the confinement period are usually in a sleeping or semi-sleeping state all day long, and can sleep for 20-22 hours a day. However, there are also some babies with more energy, and they usually only sleep for a dozen hours. Therefore, mothers do not need to worry too much about how much sleep the baby should get. As long as the baby is in good spirits and has a good appetite, there is no need to worry.

2. Wear only underwear when sleeping

When babies sleep, they just need to wear underwear like adults, and take off their socks. For babies born in summer, you can prepare a special mat and cover them with a towel blanket; for babies born in winter, it is best to prepare a sleeping bag and cover them with a small quilt; and in spring and autumn, due to the large temperature difference between day and night and the relatively low temperature at night, in addition to a sleeping bag, you should also add a thin quilt.

3. Don’t close the curtains when sleeping

Babies sleep most of the day. In order to prevent the phenomenon of day and night reversal in the future, when the baby is sleeping during the day, it is best for the mother not to draw all the curtains. Leave some natural light so that the baby can learn to distinguish between day and night. In addition, when the baby is sleeping, the mother should not clean the bedroom, otherwise the dust raised may cause respiratory diseases in the baby.

4. Develop sleeping habits early

Babies who are not yet well adapted to the external environment often need to be held by their mothers to fall asleep. Therefore, to prevent the baby from having the bad habit of "not falling asleep", the mother can try to lie down face to face with the baby, then pat the baby's back while humming softly to help the baby fall asleep.

The above is an introduction to the sleep time of babies after one month. I hope it will be helpful to many parents after understanding it. In fact, if you master more such common sense in daily life, you will be more adept at taking care of your baby. Babies are in sleep most of the time after one month, so parents don’t need to worry too much, as long as the baby’s mental state is normal, there is no problem.
