Tips for getting in the habit of sleeping in a baby
We must not make them sleep in our arms or hold them when they wake up in the middle of the night. It is important to give them the comfort and safety in the crib so they could learn to sleep on their own. It is best to make them get use to sleep with a blanket, a teddy bear, a mobile, etc.
"Sleep is a necessity, but it is a good habit, the problem is how parents teach it to their children."
We have to keep a routine: for a baby, repetition is the synonym of safety. A bath is a good previous step when it's time to sleep, because it warns and relax them. We have to give our baby the last meal of the day moments before getting them to sleep.
Before putting our baby in the crib we can hold them for a few minutes, lull them, walk with them and hold them. A few seconds before your baby fall asleep, you have to leave the room so your baby gets use to sleep alone, without having the constant presence of their parents.
From the third month on you don't need to pick up your baby when he starts moaning, it is good that your baby tries to sleep on its own.
