Does the second child need to separate from the big one during the postpartum period?

Patient's question:

I am 29 years old, male. Two years ago, I gave birth to my first child. A year ago, I had an unexpected pregnancy and gave birth to my second child, and now I am currently postpartum. However, since my first child is still young, we sleep together. But my second child keeps crying every day.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you clarify. Based on your description that the second child doesn't nap, I suggest it's better to let the baby sleep alone on their own. Regarding the situation where the second child doesn't nap during postpartum recovery, I recommend you better feed the child well and then let them read on their own and sleep on the side. This can prevent adults from delaying their own nap. I hope my explanation assists you. Wishing you health, thank you!
