Baby Q & A
 
 
Q: DEAR 育兒寶典的作者:
    我8月成為新手媽媽,首先我先告訴您我遇到的問題,寶寶最近白天都很好睡,也都睡自己的床, 但是一旦到了晚上就不同了, 跟白天喝完馬上睡著是截然相反 ( 有時拍背拍完她就已經睡著了 ),放到床上想說讓她自己睡,不論是仰睡還是趴睡她都哭的用力,所以我這幾天都抱著讓她趴在我身上睡著,再放到床上去,但放到床上去後沒多久她就醒了,又開始哭了,持續好幾天都是如此,讓我身心疲憊,我試著用您書上寫的方法來改善這樣的問題,我還在努力中,現在是有些小疑問想請教您。
 
1. 「餵奶-玩耍-睡覺」大約會花多久時間?我是30分鐘到一小時不等
2. 如何判斷寶寶玩累了,以及她現在喝的量是不是夠她撐到下一次喝奶時間?( 因為有時喝60、70就睡著了,有時喝120也都還是醒著,平均來說都喝90、100 )
3. 有時在拍背排氣的時候,寶寶就已經睡著了,是否要叫醒她玩耍,還是說直接讓她睡覺呢?
4. 按表作息那什麼時候洗澡比較好?有人說睡覺前,但我家是晚上8、9點!?
 
寶寶白天真的很好睡就算將她包得緊緊的仰睡,都可以睡很久,但晚上就是不一樣,彷彿她自己的床會吃掉她一樣,很害怕我們放她到床上去似的,我正在努力讓她可以像您書上寫的一覺到天亮,非常感謝您的書,讓我獲益良多,在此也說聲謝謝您了!

A:你好! 
如果你一致,你將花費不到兩周去訓練你的寶寶在晚上睡得好,而且在睡的時候不需要搖晃她或抱著她。

不論如何,你一定要一致。如果你不屈服於她的哭聲,寶寶將很快就適應時間表。 不做任何事勝過於做事不一致。 
 
如何判斷寶寶玩累了
在餵過之後,寶寶應該會滿足。他們應該玩得好而且很愉快。取決於你孩子的年齡,每個時期是不一樣的。當寶寶越來越大,在餵飽後的快樂時間應該會變得越來越長。當寶寶累的時候,她會開始表現得很急躁和不安。這個時候就將寶寶放到她的床上。除非你很樂意總是保持搖晃她的習慣,不然就不要再搖晃你的寶寶。簡單的確定她是乾淨的就放下她吧!
 
現在,你需要保證在白天,你很努力的讓她在喝飽後是醒著的。在吵雜的房間裡餵她。用一塊濕的布輕拍她。在餵食期間拉開奶頭。搔她的腳。試著在白天餵過她後讓她保持清醒至少半小時。餵過後給她洗個澡,如果這將叫得醒她。是的,盡力的做到將寶寶叫醒。如果你不能叫醒她, 就讓她睡在有陽光和噪音的客廳。不要把她放回她的床上。
 
在夜晚,讓她哭。停止挑選她和抱著她。只要保證她是在她的房間而且是黑暗的,然後就離開她。不要理她直到下一次餵奶的時間。 
 
至於洗澡時間,我的答案是︰對媽媽和爸爸最方便的時間就好。有時,如果你太疲倦,不要擔心!寶寶不太髒。找你最方便的時候。是的,洗澡可以放鬆,因此我建議在睡前和飯後。但是真的,決定在你。

Dear Judy:
          非常感謝妳,在你還沒回信給我之前,寶寶已經可以一覺到天亮了,沒有花費我很大的力氣跟時間,只是我可能都讓她喝完拍氣的時候讓她在我肩上趴著睡著,所以現在要努力的是盡量讓她白天喝完奶醒著至少半小時,讓她自己入睡而不是在我肩上睡著,以後有問題還會再請教妳。

(Hello!

If you are consistent, it will take you less than two weeks to train your baby to sleep well at night, and to sleep without rocking her or holding her.  However, you must be consistent.  If you do not give in to her cries, then the baby will soon adjust to the schedule.  It is better to not do anything at all, then to do something inconsistently.

 如何判斷寶寶玩累了

After feeding, a baby should be content.  They should play well and be happy.  Depending on the age of your child, this time period is different.  As the baby gets older, the happy time after feeding should become longer and longer.  The baby will start acting fussy and uncomfortable when she gets tired.  This is the time to put the baby down in her bed.  Unless you're willing to ALWAYS keep the habit of rocking her, don't rock your baby anymore.  Simply check that she's clean and put her down.

Right now, you need to make sure that during the day, you try very hard to make her stay awake after her feeding.  Nurse her in a noisy room.  Pat her with a damp cold cloth.  Pull the nipple away during feeding.  Tickle her feet.  Try to keep her awake for at least half an hour after her daytime feedings.  Give her a bath right after feeding if this will wake her up.  Yes, try your best to wake the baby up.  If you cannot wake her up, then let her sleep in the living room with lots of sunlight and noise.  Don't put her back in her bed.

During the night, let her cry.  Stop picking her and holding her.  Just make sure she's in her own room and it's dark, then just leave her.  Do not get her until the next feeding time.

As for bath time, my answer is this:  whenever it's easiest for Mom and Dad.  And sometimes, if you're too tired, don't worry about it!  The baby is not too dirty.  Give the baby a bath time that is most convenient for you.  Yes, baths can be relaxing and so I would recommend it before sleep and after meals.  But really, it's up to you.)
