Sleep time of a full-month newborn

Whether the newborns have been taken out before they are one month old, parents of the newborns should pay special attention to the care of the newborns at this time. The full month is an important transition stage for newborns, because when the newborns are one month old, it means that their bodies have gradually balanced and begun to develop slowly. The sleep time of newborns in each stage is also different, so how much sleep time do newborns sleep after one month?

Newborns develop very quickly. Newly born babies eat and sleep on time every day and grow rapidly. The younger the child, the more sleep they need. When the baby is one month old, sleep accounts for most of the day. So how much sleep time is normal for a newborn baby after one month?

The younger the child, the faster their brain develops and the more sleep they need. Generally, children have two types of sleep: deep sleep and light sleep. When they are young, they spend relatively more time in light sleep. For example, a newborn baby has a sleep cycle of about 45 minutes, half of the time is in light sleep and the other half is in deep sleep. When the child is in light sleep, he may show some symptoms, such as smiling, pouting, making faces, breathing unevenly, moving his arms and legs, and sometimes humming. This is a normal phenomenon.

Parents should not think that their children are not sleeping well. In fact, this is just a light sleep state for children. So parents do not have to worry about whether their children are hungry, have urinated, or are feeling uncomfortable, and then take care of them or take excessive care of them. Parents should not worry that their children are not sleeping well, so it will be good to ignore them. Because light sleep is very important for brain development. Why do I say so? Because adults usually dream when they are in light sleep, and they dream when they are in light sleep in the early morning. Children may also dream, but they will not say it. Light sleep is more beneficial to children's brain development, so younger children should have longer light sleep.

Especially at night, because one sleep cycle follows another, he should be allowed to sleep a little longer at night, and do not disturb him during light sleep. He can go from one sleep cycle to another, and the time gradually increases. There is no need to wake him up or play with him during the day, because when children are born, they have no day and night rhythm, and they are the same during the day and at night. It depends on adults to cultivate him slowly. Wake him up more often during the day, play with him, talk to him, let him listen to music, hold him and play with him. Disturb him as little as possible at night. Except when he is hungry and needs to feed, he should sleep more the rest of the time. Around two months old, the baby will develop a circadian rhythm.

44% of children can sleep five or six hours at night when they are two months old. This is the case if you pay attention to their training. By six months, most children are able to take long naps, about six hours in length. You can take two or three naps during the day. The sleeping time is roughly like this: the total sleep time for a newborn is about 16 hours a day, 15 hours for one to three months, about 14 hours for a six-month-old, 13 hours for one year old, 12 hours for two years old, 11 hours for three years old, and about 10 hours a day for children over four years old. Generally, after the age of three or four, children can stay awake during the day. Normally, children under one year old may sleep two or three times during the day, and two or three years old only need to take a nap at noon. This is the general sleeping situation of children.

From the introduction in this article, we can know that when a newborn is one month old, it is best to maintain about 15 hours of sleep a day. As the baby grows older, he will spend more and more time observing the outside world, and his sleep time will gradually decrease. By the age of three or four, they can stop sleeping during the day.
