Three-month-old babies are able to lift their heads during their growth and development period. However, each baby develops at a different level. It is normal for them to sleep during the day, but some babies do not like to sleep during the day. This may be because their bodies lack some trace elements, such as calcium. The baby needs to undergo a comprehensive examination and calcium supplementation can be given if there is a calcium deficiency. What should I do if my 3-month-old baby doesn’t sleep during the day? Newborn babies have no concept of day and night. He needs to sleep and feed 24 hours a day in order to develop and grow normally; therefore, day and night have no special meaning to him. Overall, a newborn sleeps about 16-18 hours out of every 24 hours; he'll usually sleep for 2-4 hours at a stretch and then wake up hungry. At first, he will feed at all times of the day and night, but he will gradually sleep a little longer at night than during the day. You can start teaching your baby that there is a difference between day and night, and you should behave differently at different times to help your little one understand the difference between the two time periods. During the day, when you are feeding your baby, talk to him more and keep the atmosphere relaxed and cheerful. And at night, try to keep your voice down or quiet. Turn the lights down; eventually he'll start to understand and sleep more during the night. Remember, if you're breastfeeding, your hormones are readjusting your sleep patterns to suit your baby's routine. If you go with the flow, these hormones will keep you from having sleep deprivation problems. You should also take naps during the day when your child is sleeping. Formula-fed babies tend to sleep slightly longer because the formula stays in their little stomachs a little longer. In general, formula-fed and breastfed babies have similar sleep patterns. Tip: When your baby is still in your womb, the movement created by your walking can calm him down and make him fall asleep quickly. So it's no surprise that newborns still love to be gently rocked and swung. Wrapping him in a swaddle can also make him feel like he's "back home" again. Many babies also find peace in the sound of music. But remember: he should be fed every 2-3 hours, 24 hours a day. It’s okay if the baby doesn’t sleep during the day but sleeps at night at the beginning, but in the future the mother must pay attention to cultivating the child’s concept of time. The baby should not sleep during the day but sleep at night. |
