The greatest joy for young mothers who are just starting out is probably seeing their babies sleeping soundly, with small eyes tightly closed and long eyelashes that make the whole world feel happy. But sometimes it is necessary to wake up the baby, but will such behavior harm the baby. So how about waking up the baby in two hours?
Babies usually sleep for much longer than adults, so it's best not to wake them up after two hours of sleep. This is also not good for the baby's development. But if the following two situations occur, mothers must not feel sorry and must wake up.
1. Baby sleeps with night and day reversed, needs to be awakened for adjustment
Many mothers have this confusion because they didn't change the sleeping time for their babies in the first few days. They slept during the day but were very energetic at night, which made the whole house restless, but there was no way to deal with their babies. This is because the baby got their sleep time wrong. At this time, mothers should not wake up because they feel sorry for the baby. Waking up is also responsible for babies, gradually adjusting their biological clock.
2. The weight is significantly lighter and needs to be awakened for breastfeeding
When babies are asleep, they won't feel hungry, and mothers won't know. I just feel like the baby is sleeping, without crying, it's definitely not hungry. If this continues for a long time, it will cause the baby's weight to drop sharply, which will actually harm the baby's development. Therefore, mothers of babies at this time must wake them up.
