Tips for setting baby sleep patterns
Know the signs of babies are tired
In the early weeks, baby birth was difficult to awake for two full hours. So when the durability is almost two hours and the baby hasn't fallen asleep, the mother must immediately put her to sleep. For the habit of letting the baby awake for a long time will make the baby experiencing trouble sleeping in the later days.
There are some recognizable signs when babies already show drowsiness, for example, it is yawning, tugging the leaves, and more fussy than usual. If the mother has seen these signs in the mother's baby, immediately sleep the baby.
Teaches day and night differences
The average newborn baby is awake when the elderly are tired and prepared to sleep. This is because babies do not understand day and night differences. Generally in the first few days after the birth of mothers cannot do much with baby habits like this. However, when entering the second week, the mother can teach her to distinguish the concept day and night.
During the day, invite the baby to play as often as possible, and let the room bright and let the sound of the television, radio, washing machine or phone fill the room. But when the night comes, dim all the lighting of the room and turn off the various electronic items that sound. When he wakes up to lactation, let the room stay dim and don't have to talk too much on the baby. If this habit is done intensely, slowly the baby will understand the situation, that daytime activities and nighttime is the time to sleep.

This trivial habit can help babies have a schedule to rest. Hopefully, the mother can set a baby sleep pattern 1 month easily, without barriers.
