Did you bring your newborn baby at home and now you face sleeping problems. It is the most common problem. If you google "Newborn Baby Not Sleeping" you can find many advices. One of them is written by Dr. Jodi Mindel. I should strongly agree with her advice to avoid rocking and nursing your baby to sleep. You will face another problem - back pain!
Read here what she suggests:
Newborn Baby - Not Sleeping?
Jodi Mindell, associate director of the Sleep Disorders Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and author of Sleeping Through the Night, advises against rocking or nursing your baby to sleep, even at this young age.
"Parents think that what they do this early doesn't have an effect," she says, "but it does. Babies are learning their sleep habits. If you rock your child to sleep every night for the first eight weeks, why would he expect anything different later on?"
1. Consider starting a bedtime routine
It's never too early to start trying to follow a bedtime routine.
It can be something as simple as:
- getting your baby changed for bed,
- singing a lullaby,
- giving him a kiss goodnight.
2. Give him a chance to fall asleep on his own
By the time he's 6 to 8 weeks old, you can start giving your baby a chance to fall asleep on his own.
How?
Put him down when he's sleepy but still awake.
