What should I do if my baby can't sleep well after confinement?

Babies are the apple of their parents’ eyes. If a child keeps crying due to lack of sleep, parents will feel distressed when seeing it. For expectant fathers and mothers, the newborn baby is a stranger to them. They don’t know why the baby is crying and not sleeping, and what the baby who can’t speak wants to express. Let’s talk about what to do if the baby can’t sleep well during the confinement period?

After birth, every child will have a strong attachment to his or her family, especially his or her mother. They hope that their relatives will participate in all things in life, and will feel anxious if they can't see their relatives for a while. Sleeping is the best example. Children will feel particularly safe when sleeping in their mother's arms. Once they get to the bed, or when the child wakes up and can't see their family, they will instinctively feel anxious. Crying is a way for them to relieve anxiety. Parents need to give their children enough psychological comfort when they are sleeping, so that the children can feel the care of their parents at any time! Of course, it may also be that the child is hungry, and the parents can feed the child appropriately! It is normal for babies under 2 months old to dance and jump. It is because their nervous control system is not perfect and their hands and feet are not coordinated. This will not happen in about 2 months. If he falls asleep after eating for a while, it may be because his suction is not strong enough and it is difficult for him to eat. He gets tired after eating for a while and takes a nap to rest. When you think he is asleep and put him down, he is hungry again and wants to eat again. Or maybe you don’t have enough milk and your baby gets tired easily, but his stomach is not full enough, so he can’t sleep well and wakes up after a while to eat. Another reason is that the baby's sleeping habits are not well developed. A newborn baby should sleep for about 20 hours. He needs to be held to sleep during the day because he is accustomed to this way of sleeping from the beginning. It is recommended to establish a set of healthy sleeping habits for the baby in the future, and try to let him fall asleep independently. This will be beneficial to his future life. The baby's sleeping environment is also very important. Too hot, too cold, or too noisy will affect his sleep.

Through the above explanation, I believe that expectant fathers and mothers have a general understanding of the reasons why babies in confinement period cannot sleep well. What should they do if their babies in confinement period cannot sleep well? For first-time fathers and mothers, the process of getting along between the baby and the parents still needs further adjustment. It is normal for babies to sleep restlessly during the confinement period, so parents don’t need to worry too much.
