Sleeping at eight o'clock in the spring of February and April is like making things difficult for those who are fierce. How to explain it?

We can see that infants sleep much more than adults. Newborns are almost always asleep except when they are awake when they are breastfeeding or diapers are wet. The development of the baby's nervous system is not perfect, and the brain is prone to fatigue. More sleep is just the need of the baby's growth and development. The sleep time of infants and young children is roughly as follows (hours): born 2, nine months, 14-15, two years old, 12.5, seven years old, 11, two months, 16-18, 13-14, three years old, 12, over seven years old, 9-1, four months, 15-16, fifteen months, 13, five years old, 11.5. If you want to sleep well, you must develop good sleep habits. Breast-feeding should be done regularly during the day, and the milk before going to bed can be thicker and fed later (21: -22: ). Try not to feed, eat or change diapers at night after eating, and let them sleep until dawn. Children should sleep alone, not with their mothers, so that the air is fresh, the children will not be unable to sleep (cooked) because their mothers leave, and both mother and child can have a good rest. The mother sleeps too hard, and sometimes sleeping together will hold the child down, or even pressure, and sleeping alone will not happen. Children's quilts should be soft, warm and comfortable, not too much. Don't tease or frighten children before going to bed, so as not to be too excited and affect sleep. Don't get into the bad habit of shaking in your arms, patting your back or falling asleep with nipples. You should put it on the bed and let the children sleep by themselves. How to coax infants to sleep There are various ways for infants to fall asleep at night. Some children play nonstop before going to bed. When they want to sleep, they fall asleep as soon as they lie in their mother's arms. Some people need to eat milk before going to bed, and they also need to suck empty bottles before going to bed. Some children go to bed at the prescribed time. Some children toss and turn for a long time before they can fall asleep after going to bed. So, how to make infants fall asleep on time? (1) If children are full of energy before going to bed and don't want to go to bed early, then parents should consciously increase his activity during the day to make him play a little tired, but before going to sleep, they should calm him down and don't get too excited, which is conducive to falling asleep. (2) Don't eat too much or too little before going to bed, so as not to affect sleep due to gastrointestinal discomfort or hunger. Don't tease children too much, so that children can maintain emotional stability before going to bed and prevent excessive excitement. Toys should not be given after going to bed, lest children refuse to fall asleep because of fun. (3) For children who wake up in the middle of the night, if they can fall asleep after eating mother's milk, they can eat some mother's milk or eat some milk to make them fall asleep quietly. There is no need to worry about forming bad habits. Because as children grow up, the habit of waking up in the middle of the night to nurse will gradually disappear. (4) Most young children like their mothers to accompany them to sleep. In this way, children will be very at ease and happy; Sleep peacefully under my mother's sweet lullaby. But be careful not to get into the habit of falling asleep from childhood. It is necessary to cultivate that you are willing to lie down and sleep by yourself at the age of 1, go to bed on time at the age of 2, and don't need your parents to accompany you. After 3 years old, you can go to bed by yourself and put on slippers after waking up. Do children sleep in the same bed as adults? Some parents are used to letting their children sleep in the same bed as adults, thinking that this can take better care of their children. In fact, this is very unsanitary. Adults have a wider range of activities in society than children, and there are many opportunities to infect and carry various germs, but adults have strong resistance, and they may not all get sick after being infected or carrying germs. However, if adults and children sleep in the same bed, it is easy to infect children with germs, and children's resistance is weak, so they are prone to diseases of one kind or another. In addition, children and adults sleep in the same bed, which will make children absorb insufficient oxygen. The oxygen demand of human brain tissue is very high. The younger you are, the more oxygen demand you have. If adults hug their children to sleep, their breath will increase the concentration of carbon dioxide in the surrounding air. Sleeping children often have unstable sleep due to insufficient oxygen supply to their brains, and are prone to nightmares and crying in the middle of the night. Children sleeping among their parents will be more serious. Long-term sleep in such an anoxic environment will affect the metabolism of brain tissue, and in severe cases, it will affect the growth and intellectual development of children. In addition, newborns sleep with adults, because adults are asleep, it is possible to cover children's nose and mouth with their hands and bedding, leading to suffocation and even death. The best way is to let infants sleep alone in a small bed that can be moved flexibly. When adults don't sleep, put the cot in a clean and quiet place, and put it in a room alone if possible; When adults sleep, move the small bed to one side of the big bed so as to take care of the children at night. What is it that infants wake up easily when they sleep? Young parents are very concerned about their babies' sleep, hoping that their children will have a sweet sleep. However, some infants and young children are particularly prone to wake up during sleep. What is going on? Generally speaking, there are the following factors: (1) Physiological factors: Because the development of the nervous system of infants and young children is not perfect, the excitation and inhibition functions of nerves are not coordinated enough, and they are easy to get excited. A little external stimulation may cause the excitement of the nervous system and cause the baby to wake up. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. As the baby grows up, the function of the nervous system is improved step by step, and this physiological phenomenon will naturally disappear. (2) Overeating: As the saying goes: "The stomach is not fit, and I am restless". Some mothers always give snacks before going to bed, regardless of whether their children are hungry or not, which makes children feel uncomfortable and affects the quality of sleep; Especially for breast-feeding babies, some mothers are used to breast-feeding their babies to sleep, resulting in excessive milk intake and abdominal distension, and the young mothers immediately use milk to appease them after waking up, resulting in a vicious circle. (3) Disease factors: Children's intestinal parasitic diseases are the most common reasons for children's unstable sleep. If you suffer from parasitic diseases, it will cause children's indigestion and malnutrition, anemia, panic and other symptoms, and children with early rickets often sleep and wake up easily. (4) Environmental factors: when children are sleeping, the indoor light is too strong, and family members watching TV and talking and laughing loudly will interfere with children's normal sleep and easily wake up; Children are easy to kick the quilt at night, or the quilt is too thick and heavy, which will cause children to be too cold or too hot when sleeping, causing children to be restless and move their hands and feet, which is also a common reason for sleeping easily. (5) Excessive excitement: Some children play games too much during the day or before going to bed, or listen to or watch thrilling stories and TV. It can often cause difficulty for children to fall asleep; Even if they fall asleep, children with better and faster intellectual development will "think every day and dream at night", and children can often wake up in their dreams. In summer, do children blow electric fans to sleep? In midsummer, the sun is hot, and most people use electric fans to dissipate heat and ventilate, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling and comfort. Children, in particular, sometimes cry because of the heat. In order to make children fall asleep quietly, some parents turn the electric fan to the maximum gear and blow it at their children for a long time. Some parents simply let their children blow electric fans naked. Doing so is not conducive to children's health. As we all know, the human body is like a precise instrument, and all systems and parts should be relatively balanced, so should the evaporation of sweat on the body surface. If the electric fan is blown at the child for a long time, the sweat will evaporate quickly when it is blown to the body surface, but it will evaporate slowly when it is not blown by the wind, which will make the sweat excretion on the body surface out of balance. Sweating is not a trivial matter, it plays an important role in maintaining the balance between the blood circulation system and the central nervous system. In particular, the autonomic nerve regulation function of infants and young children is not fully developed and is in a relatively unbalanced state, and their regulation ability to cold and hot stimuli is poor. If you keep blowing an electric fan at your child, it will cause your child's body temperature to drop, and coupled with uneven sweat excretion, it will easily cause diseases. It can cause nasal congestion, runny nose, upper respiratory tract infection, abdominal pain, diarrhea and other diseases, and serious diseases such as high fever, mouth deviation and eye deviation can occur. Then, how to use the electric fan scientifically? First of all, the electric fan should not be too close to the child, nor should it blow directly at the child. The electric fan should be placed in an appropriate place indoors to make the air circulate and create an environment similar to natural wind, so as to promote the heat dissipation of the human body. Secondly, the use of electric fans should not be too long, and the air volume should not be too large, and try to make the electric fans shake their heads and rotate, so that the wind source is not completely fixed at a certain point, which looks like a burst of cool air. When children urinate and wet clothes or sweat for a long time, they should dry the sweat first, and then turn on the electric fan after changing clothes, otherwise children will easily catch a cold. If you have a cold, it is even more inappropriate to blow an electric fan, otherwise it will aggravate your condition. In addition, children should wear underwear, at least around the chest and abdomen, and never let children blow electric fans naked. Why do children insist on taking a nap? The summer weather is hot, and the nights are short and the days are long, which makes the sleep time at night relatively reduced. Therefore, it is necessary to take a nap for a certain period of time to make up for it. Children, in particular, are more prone to fatigue because of their immature brain development, and need to take a nap to rest to supplement the lack of sleep at night. In addition, the weather is hot, and the human body mainly relies on the sweat of the skin to evaporate and dissipate heat, so that a large amount of blood is concentrated in the skin, which leads to the decrease of blood in various organs in the body, and of course, brain tissue is no exception; When the blood supply to brain tissue decreases, it will make people depressed and easy to sleep. Moreover, because of the hot weather, it is necessary to drink more water, which will dilute the gastric juice and make digestion bad, that is to say, the appetite will decrease. If you don't take a nap, children will not only eat badly, but also sleep badly, which will affect growth and development for a long time, and will also affect intelligence. Also, we should insist on taking a nap in winter, because after lunch, the stomach needs blood for digestion and absorption, which also reduces the blood in the brain and makes it easy to get tired. Only by taking a nap can we eliminate fatigue and make it energetic in the afternoon, which is beneficial to children's physical and mental health. The length of nap time should be determined according to the age of children. The younger the child, the longer the nap time, and the shorter the nap time with the increase of age. In a word, taking a nap is good for children's physical and mental health. What are the harms of breathing through the mouth when children sleep? How to correct the bad habit of breathing through the mouth when patients have chronic rhinitis, turbinate hypertrophy's disease, curved nasal septum, paranasal sinusitis and other diseases, the respiratory tract will be partially or completely blocked, so patients have to breathe through the mouth instead. Many children have developed their own bad habit of breathing through the mouth. Long-term oral breathing will affect the normal development of the face, presenting a special face, which is characterized by mouth breathing, atrophy of nasal alar, hypertrophy of lips, shallowing of nasolabial groove, curling of upper lip, crowded dentition, high arch of palatal lid, protrusion of upper teeth, etc., which will affect the facial beauty. At the same time, due to the change of dental arch, the tension of masticatory muscles is insufficient, the masticatory function can be reduced, and frequent oral breathing can also make oral mucosa dry and easy to crack, and even affect alveolar tissue. If you breathe with your mouth open during sleep, the harm is even greater. When sleeping, the vagal nerve excitability increases and the secretion increases, but the cough reflex is not sensitive, so it is not easy to discharge tracheal secretions in time, which weakens its resistance to germs. In addition, when breathing through the mouth, the air is directly inhaled into the lungs from the mouth without being filtered through the nasal cavity, which is easy to induce oral diseases and respiratory diseases. Therefore, parents should correct children's oral breathing in time. First of all, check for nasal diseases. If there is no nasal obstruction, it is only because children develop the habit of breathing through their mouths. During the day, family members should explain the disadvantages of oral breathing to children, and encourage and supervise children to breathe through the nose. At night, when the child sleeps, put a small mask with three layers of gauze on him, but leave his nostrils outside, forcing him to breathe through the nasal cavity instead. Those with nasal diseases should be actively treated to make the nasal cavity unobstructed as far as possible, and then corrected by the above-mentioned "wearing a mask". Children who have formed severe dentofacial deformities should go to the hospital for correction. What factors affect children's sleep? The common factors that affect children's sleep are: (1) Bad sleep habits, irregular sleep time or walking, shaking or singing lullabies before going to bed. (2) Overexcited or nervous during the day, frightened, too hot and stuffy, bitten by mosquitoes or wet diapers. (3) Children can't distinguish between true and false some terrible things in their dreams, which causes fear and affects sleep. (4) Intestinal parasitic diseases in children, such as enterobiasis in children, make pinworms crawl out of the anus every night, causing itching and affecting sleep. (5) Hungry and uncomfortable, the bedding is too warm and thick, which makes it difficult for children to emit heat, or the quilt is too small, which makes children catch cold. (6) Older children's poor sleep is often related to changes in living habits and emotions. For example, the change of sleeping place, or listening to weird stories or watching thrilling movies before going to bed, so that the mood can't settle down for a long time. (7) Various diseases will also affect sleep. What unexpected and festive weddings may happen during children's sleep have opened the prelude to a new life. After the inseparable honeymoon, the young couple began a warm life. Finally, one day, my wife embarked on the journey of "pregnancy in October" and waited for "delivery once". However, when the baby that I look forward to every day came into the world, some young parents, due to lack of basic nursing knowledge, caused a series of sad tragedies, which made a series of babies leave the world prematurely. However, some tragedies occur during children's sleep and should be taken as a warning. Young and kind mothers like to sleep in the same bed with their babies, while others sleep in the same bed with three of them, thinking that this is beneficial to nursing their children and can give them breast milk and change diapers in time. In fact, there are many disadvantages for parents and children to sleep in the same bed. For example, parents exhale a lot of carbon dioxide during sleep, and the baby around them inhales air containing carbon dioxide. Children's brain cells are very sensitive to insufficient oxygen, which often leads to children's irritability. Moreover, parents who are busy and tired for a day will unconsciously change their sleeping postures when they sleep. If they press their limbs on the head and face of the child, the child can neither turn over nor cry, which will easily lead to suffocation and death. We once encountered such an example: a female worker had a 1-month-old baby girl. On a deep winter night, after a hard day's work, she accompanied her children and soon fell asleep. When she woke up to breast-feed the baby, she found that the baby was dead. After autopsy, it was confirmed that it was suffocation. It turns out that this is because the exhausted mother pressed her arm against the child's nose and mouth while sleeping, and excessive fatigue made her unable to perceive the child's desperate struggle, which led to the child's death. In addition, some mothers like to lie down and breast-feed their children, especially at night. They feel both labor-saving and comfortable. In fact, this breast-feeding posture sometimes brings danger to children. Because lactating women generally feel tired, it is easy for them to fall asleep when they lie down to feed their children at night. When children suck enough milk and fall asleep with their nipples sweet, their nostrils are likely to be blocked by their breasts and cause suffocation. My neighbor, Xiao Zhang, had an 8-month-old baby boy. One night, while breastfeeding, his mother unconsciously fell asleep, but his son died with nipples in his mouth. Children sleeping alone in a bed should also prevent accidents. Some beds have no fence or the fence is not high enough. Before going to bed, children accidentally fall down and easily hurt their heads, while others accidentally put their feet into the fence around the bed, resulting in foot trauma. In order to prevent children from falling out of bed, some parents pull ropes, clothes, towels, etc. at the bedside. Don't you know that when children play with these ropes, clothes, etc., they are in danger of being wrapped around their necks or blocking their mouths and nostrils. If there is a one-and-a-half-year-old fat boy who has fallen off the bed several times, his mother will pull a nylon rope on the bedside to prevent the fat boy from falling again. One night after half a month, when the mother went back to the bedroom to see the child who had already fallen asleep, she found that the child was lying on his stomach, and his neck was stuck on the nylon rope, and he was dead. After forensic identification, it was an accident. In view of the above situation, we should choose a small bed with fences on four sides for children. The width between fences should be 3 ~ 5 cm and the height should reach the children's shoulders to prevent children from getting out of the bed when standing.
