Baby Q & A 寶寶問題解答
 
 
Q: 您好. 我的寶寶再一個禮拜就滿4個月了,在她3個月後因為我需要服藥則停餵母乳改餵配方奶.. 我今天已經看完您的書了.. 我家的寶寶也有大家都遇到的問題.. 但我還是有些疑惑想請問您.    寶寶醒著時,約2-3小時就哭著要喝奶奶,但當睡的很沉就可以撐到4小時才喝下一餐..但這是白天的狀況.. 晚上睡覺時間幾乎固定3小時起來喝奶奶(12點,3點,5點-6點),最近一個禮拜來半夜3點後起來喝完奶奶後就不大睡覺了, 而且都會吵鬧要人家陪,像昨天3點,4點,5點都起來要喝奶奶,但都喝不多,大約60的量,所以都浪費很多奶奶.. 寶寶不喝就不喝了,本想說她要吸東西才睡的著,但奶嘴跟水都行不通.. 不給她喝就都要吸手指頭或是哭.. 所以我不知道每次她不喝了是因為飽了才不喝還是怎麼.. 所以我要如何得知她到底有沒有飽? 最後一個問題,如果讓寶寶跟我睡同一個臥室,但不同床,這樣可以改善嗎? 關於趴睡的問題,我有嘗試要讓寶寶趴著..但是她的腳會弓著,根本無法趴在床上..請問要如何才做的到趴睡呢 ? Jenny A: Hello Jenny, 我很高興你寫信給我。希望我可以幫助你得到一些好的休息時間。如果你想看到一個好的改變,你需要遵守下列事項且一定要堅持到底的去做: 1) 現在最好且第一你要做的事是讓你的寶寶在他(她)自己的房間。從現在開始讓寶寶學習在自己的房間睡覺是最好的。這一定會幫助寶寶在整個夜晚期間停止玩耍。 2) 在白天的期間,你現在的時間表是什麼?再擬定一個每4小時餵食一次好的時間表。餵飽後,記得讓寶寶保持清醒,跟寶寶玩讓寶寶累,然後讓寶寶小睡一下。記得在白天的期間遵循「餵飽-玩耍-睡覺」的循環。 3) 我的朋友有一個4個月大的寶寶,他們使用丹瑪醫師的方法訓練寶寶,他們的寶寶經過6天的訓練就可以一覺到天亮。現在他們的寶寶可以在夜晚睡12小時都不間斷。他們告訴我如果你的寶寶體重約6公斤,醫生建議每天大約餵寶寶體重的10%。所以如果寶寶大約是6.3公斤的話,醫生建議一天餵大約540-720cc。但是丹瑪醫師說有些寶寶吃的比較少,那是沒關係的。重要的事是要看體重有沒有增加,大約一個禮拜100公克。如果你的寶寶體重持續增加且健康,你就不須要太擔心了。 4) 接下來,在添加副食品方面,開始餵嬰兒食物泥,一天三次。你的寶寶夠大了,嬰兒食物泥將幫助她變的更飽。吃嬰兒食物泥可能也幫助她睡的更好更久。剛開始摻雜一些米麥類食物泥,等她學會吞嚥米麥類的食物泥後,開始添加水果泥,再過一段時間,開始添加一些蛋白質。看我的書本裡的餵食篇。 5) 一旦你開使有了每4小時餵一次的好的日程表,接下來從我的書中挑選一個訓練寶寶一覺到天亮的三個方法。不管你選擇那一個方法都沒關係,在夜晚的期間都不要起來,頂多一次。例如,如果你最後一次餵是晚上10點,大約2-3點只能再餵她一次。不要再餵她任何東西,直到早上6點再餵。 6) 如果你忠於你的時間表,你的寶寶將會停止吃點心,她會開始飽食一餐,如果你忠於你的時間表,她將會學著吃到飽為止。現在你的寶寶一整天就是在吃點心,那就是為什麼她只喝少量的牛奶跟她為什麼喝的那麼頻繁了。 7) 當你試著讓寶寶去適應新的時間表時,你的寶寶會尖叫會哭那是很正常的。先前她已經養成在任何時間利用哭來得到注意的習慣。如果你真的想要改變這養成的習慣,為你的家人和你自己帶來寧靜與休息,你一定要始終如一。接下來的兩個禮拜,照著這時間表嘗試困難。如果她在夜晚的途中哭,你要堅決的只餵她一次,然後不理會她!不要給她水或奶嘴,只是讓她學著安慰她自己。兩個禮拜後,如果你始終如一,你將會看到好的改變。 8) 對於趴睡,我想你的寶寶可能只是肌肉不發達,因為她都仰著睡。當你跟她玩開始讓她趴著,讓她反覆地練習爬及抬起她的脖子。她已經四個月大了,趴睡對她來說不是很重要了。這是你的決定。 如果你有任何更多的問題,任何時間都可以寫信給我。讓我知道進展如何。 Judy To Judy: 經過3個禮拜的訓練 現在我的寶貝女兒可以一覺到天亮了 昨天即使是5:00pm喝最後一次,也是可以一覺到6:00am才叫寶寶起床喝牛奶喔.. 我真的很高興有如此的改變 白天也是4小時喝一次,但有時還是會早個1hr喝,但至少時間都可以控制了.. 也都遵循著餵飽-玩耍-睡覺這模式走 真的好帶多了..^ - ^.. 很感謝judy的教導 Jenny (I am so happy you wrote me.  I hope I can help you get some good rest. If you would like to see a good change, you will need to do the following, and to persevere in doing it consistently: 1)  The best and first thing you can do now, is to put your baby in her own bedroom.  It is best for her to learn to sleep in her own room from now on.  This will definitely help her to stop playing during the night. 2)  During the day time, what is your current schedule?  Begin setting a good schedule of feeding once every four hours.  After feeding, remember to keep her awake after feeding, play with her and make her tired, and then put her to nap.  Remember the feed-play-sleep cycle during the day.   3)  My friend has a four month old baby whom they have trained using the Dr. Denmark method.  Their baby slept through the night after 6 days of training.  Their baby sleeps 12 hours straight at night now.  They tell me that if your baby weighs around 6 kg, the doctors recommend feeding about approximately 10% of the baby's body weight each day.  So if the baby is about 6.3kg, the doctors recommend feeding about 540-720cc a day.  But Dr. Denmark would say some babies eat less and that it's OK.  The important thing to look for is consistent weight gain, about 100g a week.  If your baby is gaining weight consistently and healthy, then you don't need to worry too much.   4)  Next, in addition to formula, begin feeding baby food, three times a day.  Your baby is old enough.  Baby food will help her to become more full, too.  Eating baby food may also help her to sleep better and longer.  Start with rice cereal mixed with some formula.  After she gets used to swallowing the rice cereal, begin adding pureed fruit, and after a while, begin adding some protein.  Check the feeding chapter in my book.   5)  Once you have begun a good daytime schedule of feeding once every four hours, next pick one of the three methods in my book for training the baby to sleep through the night.  No matter which method you choose, do NOT get up in the middle of the night more than once.  For example, if your last feeding is 10:00PM, feed her only ONCE about 2-3 PM.  Do NOT feed her anymore until the morning feeding of 6AM. 6)  If you stick to your schedule, your baby will stop 'snacking'.  She will begin taking 'full meals.'  If you stick to your schedule, she will learn to eat until she is full.  Right now, your baby is used to 'snacking' through the day.  That's why she only drinks a few cc of milk and why she drinks so often. 7)  It will be very normal for your baby to scream and cry as you try to adjust her to the new schedule.  She has already formed the habit of getting attention everytime she cries.  If you really want to change the overall habit, and to bring overall peace and rest to your family and yourself, you will need to be CONSISTENT.  For the next two weeks, try hard to follow the schedule.  If she cries in the middle of the night, feed her only the one time you have decided to.  Then ignore her!  Don't give her water or pacifier.  Just let her learn to comfort herself.  After two weeks, if you are consistent, you will see a good change. 8)  As for 趴睡, I think your baby may just have weak muscles because she has been sleeping on her back.  When you play with her, begin putting her on her stomach.  Let her practice crawling and lifting up her neck.  Since she's already four months old, it's not so important to have her 趴睡 anymore.  It's your decision. Write me anytime if you have any more questions.  Let me know how things progress. Judy)
