The baby's sleep at 6 months is refreshing, as he at this age can already sleep about 11 hours a night, without needing to be fed in the middle of the night.
The 6-month-old baby should take 2 naps, from 1 to 2 hours, usually in the morning and during the early afternoon, and then sleep well at night.
Some suggestions that may help when baby go to sleep may be:
- Put the baby in the crib while he is still awake so he gets used to falling asleep in his own bed;
- Give the baby a soft toy or his favorite to help him fall asleep;
- Put soft music and low light in the baby's room so that it calms down and falls asleep more easily;
- Do not shake the baby very much, whether playing with siblings or watching TV, so he does not stay awake and thus be harder to fall asleep.
It is important to establish a routine before the baby sleeps, as this will help you realize that it is time to sleep. Bathing the baby, playing a quiet game, reading a story to sleep or singing a song of the same order and at the same time every night is an example of routine that can be adopted.
It is while the baby sleeps that it produces the homonym of the growth, so it is necessary that it sleep well so that it grows and develops better.
