Baby Not Sleeping? I know how you feel. Tired, frustrated, overhelmed,...nervous,..
1. Learn the signs that mean he's tired.
For the first 6 to 8 weeks, most babies are not able to stay up much longer than 2 hours at a time. If you wait longer than that to put your baby down, he may be overtired and have trouble falling asleep.
Learn the signs that shows that your child is tired:
Is he rubbing his eyes, pulling on his ear, or developing faint dark circles under his eyes?
If you spot these or any other signs of sleepiness, try putting him down to sleep.
You'll soon develop a sixth sense about your baby's daily rhythms and patterns, and you'll know instinctively when he's ready for a nap.
2. Begin to teach him the difference between day and night.
Some infants are night owls (something you may have gotten a hint of during pregnancy) and will be wide awake just when you want to hit the hay.
For the first few days you will not be able to do much about this. But once your baby is about 2 weeks old, you can start teaching him to distinguish night from day.
1. When your baby is alert and awake during the day, interact with her/him as much as you can.
2. Keep the house and his room light and bright.
3. Do not worry about minimizing regular daytime noises like the phone, TV, or dishwasher.
4. If he tends to sleep through feedings, wake the baby up.
At night,
1. Do not play with him when he wakes up.
2. Keep the lights and noise level low,
3. Do not spend too much time talking to him.
