4 Ways to Keep Your Newborn Awake During the Day
3. Try to hold your new born as much as possible and start singing or talking to him or her
Unless you are not making your new born tired and not depriving him or her of the much needed sleep, you can try doing this. His also increases the bonding between you and your new born.
4. Do not encourage the new born to sleep soon after feeding
A lot of mothers try to make their babies sleep soon after feeding. This is not good for the baby’s stomach as well as his or her sleep. Soon after feeding the baby, ensure that the milk gets digested and that the baby burps. This should keep the baby awake for a little longer and also sleep better in the night.
As new parents or as a new mother, you would have surely signed up for sleepless nights after the baby comes home. Understand that this is just for a few week or months and let the baby get as much as sleep as possible. Do not tire out the new born by keeping him or awake during the day so you can sleep at night. Each new born is different and will require different things to keep them awake for a little longer during the day. Work with your new born to see what makes him or her comfortable.
