Patient's question:
My baby is nine months old. At night, he never sleeps. He sleeps from 10 a.m. to 3 or 4 p.m., for 3 to 4 hours, and then plays until 3 or 4 a.m. before sleeping. He wakes up after just three hours! I don't know what to do.Doctor's answer:
The condition of your baby has also been experienced by my baby. Our solution is that if the baby takes a nap at noon, usually they sleep for 1 hour, we let them sleep for half an hour. In the afternoon, we can take them out to play. When they feel sleepy, we find some of their favorite things to entertain them. Around 8 o'clock in the evening, we put the baby to sleep. We can try telling them stories or singing to them. By doing this for half a month, the baby will gradually develop a habit. Of course, the family members should also accompany the baby to sleep early and wake up early. If the baby is sleeping but the adults are not, any noise will still wake the baby up.
