The child does not sleep at night: possible causes

All parents faced a problem when a child does not sleep at night. In some children, this happens sometimes - from time to time, others - systematically for a long time.

Do not worry ahead of time. Observe what mood the child has during waking hours, whether he has a good appetite. If all this is normal, then you have nothing to worry about. Relations with sleep in all children are individual, and you do not need to compare your child with the children of your friends or neighbors. If, with a normal appetite, a good gain in weight and no worries during the day, the baby sleeps less at night than his peers, which means that it is exactly how much sleep his body requires.

In the case when the baby does not sleep at night, but does it most of the day time - also do not get upset, it will eventually pass. Babies tend to confuse the time of day. So little babies in general it's all the same, day now or night. Another thing is that you want to sleep at night with your mother, but you have to rock your baby. In other words, his regime does not coincide with the regime of adults. In this case, you can advise parents to use every day to relax in order to be in a good mood and well-being.

Most likely, the child will become worse sleep, when his teeth begin to be cut, he will be bothered by pain in the tummy, because of discomfort from wet diapers, if he was hungry or wanted to drink or just requires some attention.

If in the middle of the night the child woke up and began to cry, do not turn on the light, do not make a noise and do not run to him immediately. If a minute or two later the crying does not stop, take the baby in your arms, shake it, caress it. All this must be done quietly, without sudden movements and in the dark.

With colic, gently massage your tummy clockwise, and if the child does not resist, you can put it on your tummy. Even in our days, there is no remedy that will completely save the baby from intestinal colic (as well as from the soreness of the gums with the appearance of the first teeth). Therefore, give the baby herbal tea, which the doctor will recommend, just put on your hands, pressing your tummy to yourself, massage.

If the reason for giving up sleep is a thirst or a desire to eat, water and feed the child. Small children are mostly clean, so do not allow them to lie on wet diapers, change diapers more often.

Measure the temperature in the room where the baby is sleeping. It should not exceed 20 degrees and be clean. Minimize the number of carpets and large soft toys so as not to accumulate dust.

Let the baby get used to sleeping in his crib from birth. If the child does not sleep separately from the baby at night, but fits with his parents, then it will be difficult to wean him.

Understanding why a child does not sleep at night, one can not help but say more serious causes of sleep disturbance. Some children have such problems - since birth, many of them are a consequence of stress, and sometimes it is almost impossible to identify the cause. It is a strong sleep is the most important component of health. With systematic violations of sleep can not be tolerated, because if you do not pay attention to them, the problems will only worsen. Moreover, a constant lack of sleep can cause some diseases: dysfunction of the immune system, disruption of the normal functioning of the central nervous system, and, as a consequence, neuroses. Sleep disorders do not appear on their own, without a reason. Problems with sleep can be pursued from birth, if the fault is all - the state of health of the baby, and appear almost suddenly - most likely, the reason for changing the regime or lifestyle of the child. Consult a doctor to exclude treatment requiring medical treatment.

Ventilate the child's room, going for a walk, you can leave a draft at home to fill it with fresh air. Humidity in the room where children sleep, should be in the range of 50-70%
