The most painful thing about being a mother on the way to raise a baby is [not being able to sleep].
From the difficulty of falling asleep in the third trimester of pregnancy, to frequent lactation in the newborn period, to various sleep problems in the growing period, whenever we overcome one, new babies [sleep devil] follow one after another.
Do you know that the biggest joke I have ever heard is what?
Have the same comforting sleep (crying) as babies.
Doctor Clove’s good friend Orange Mother has just experienced the process of [from coaxing to sleep in hell to sleeping in paradise on her own]. In her story, she may find the shadow of you and me.
Sleeping: Two or Three Hours of Opening Play
At dusk and sunset, Mao Tou began to sleep, and I began to feel flustered, short of breath and sweaty palms, because I knew that the long night, which only belonged to me, was about to begin again.
No one knows what a lively drama will be staged in the silent night.
After taking a bath, Eva put on her clothes and hugged her upright while crying and struggling. Then she swung to comfort him and calmed him down.
The shaking method must be creative, and it must be updated in time after three days. The more popular ones are running up and down stairs, speeding up and then braking sharply, squatting, turning in circles, or irregular arrangement and combination of these movements.
If Xiao ye is in a good mood today, then about half an hour later, he will begin to feel weak, his eyes are lax, half open and half closed, and he may allow me to hold him sideways, usually when my hands are sore enough to feel unconscious… probably… perhaps should… be able to let me sit down… … …
Don’t sit early! As long as Eva feels that your muscles have the motivation to [sit down], she will start to twist and twist as a warning. If she does not listen to the warning and insists on going her own way, people will get up and cry when they fight, and everything will start from scratch.
Therefore, the timing of sitting down must be well grasped.
After sitting down, she quickly seized the opportunity to nurse, uncovered her clothes and put her nipples on. Don’t delay. When the swallowing sound gradually disappeared, Eva finally relaxed.
At this time, I am facing the next great challenge: how to take out my nipples without waking him up.
Of course, I did not dare to pull it out at once, so I had to stretch my areola and pull it out bit by bit like a thief. If I was found in the middle, I had to plug it back and forth. Sometimes I had to pull it back and forth two or three times. Sometimes I really want to take a knife to cut off my boobs and let him hold it! In the meantime, it is necessary to
Finally, the kids finally let go of their mouths like gifts. This level is a breakthrough and they can have a break at halftime.
On the Bed: Stage Victory
In bed is the key to victory.
One side put the lower body on the ground first, then slowly put it down, carefully pulled out his hand, adjusted the baby to the most comfortable position, and covered the quilt.
Eva was finally safely put down, but it was not finished yet.
Never sit down and get out of bed, kneeling down and getting out of bed is even more deadly! Therefore, the correct approach is to lie down, let the body contact the bed in the largest area, so that the bed does not sink, and then roll under the bed as slowly as possible at the beginning. Of course, if you successfully roll through a body position, you can slightly speed up the speed, and be careful not to get too excited at the end of the roll so as not to hit the floor with great joy and sorrow.
Don’t get up when you roll to the ground, crawl directly to the door, stand up again when you get outside, gently twist the door handle to take back the door lock, then gently cover the door, and finally gently release the handle.
Whoo! Finally, I won the stage victory and felt that I had experienced eighty-one difficult.
The next step is to maintain the victory and warn the whole family not to make any noise. It goes without saying that they walk lightly. They should pay attention to the splash when urinating and defecating. They dare not even click the mouse, but only use the touch screen of the notebook.
Then I can finally squander my precious free time.
Awakening at Night: A Random Small Spot Check in Class
After two hours, maybe only one hour, the silence will be broken by Eva’s crying.
If the evening marathon is like a comprehensive test, then waking up at night is like a random spot check in class, playing with speed and excitement, which fully tests my judgment and determination between half dream and half awakening.
Of course, there is only one topic, and that is why you cry.
A. Sleep with milk; B. to hold vertically; C. to hold horizontally; D. Turn over
You only have one chance to choose. If you choose the right one, Eva will go back to sleep in a daze after whispering a few times.
Once you make the wrong choice, you will forget the loud crying. The most horrible thing is that when you are awake and sleepy, you have no need to play with you. If you are awake, you don’t know how long you will stay with you. If you are not careful, you will stay with you until dawn. If you are tired, you will have to sleep. It will be an endless cycle.
A painful way to sleep
Figure
I remember that time, my mother-in-law asked me with concern every day:
How many times did the kids wake up last night? In the meantime, it is necessary to
When the baby is less than three months old, it is more frequent to wake up at night and eat milk, but it is basically kept at once every three hours. I can still answer this figure.
When Eva was four months old, I couldn’t answer it completely. My mind was in a mess. Every night was a long, tiring and endless dream.
Five months later, I was able to answer this question again, because I had directly evolved into neurasthenia and could not sleep at all.
I have to wake up when Eva woke up. When Eva fell asleep, I was nervous all over. Just a little sleepy, the kid cried again.
I still remember those days when I slept with milk once an hour. My back was sore and my whole body was stiff and I was gnawed by my baby. I still did not dare to move. I stared at the dark ceiling as if I were trapped in an invisible cage.
I can only tell myself, who let the gadget that tortured me be my own, my own, my own! In the meantime, it is necessary to
It is not enough to talk about life without crying at night.
As a countless people who want to cry late at night and are not qualified to cry, I think I am going to realize the truth.
Every night I am so tortured, you can imagine that I am a state of how during the day.
He has a very bad temper. He is very angry when he speaks. He looks at his parents-in-law who are not pleasing to the eye. His husband is angry when he is doing what. He wants to cry for any trivial matter. He doesn’t want to hold the child at the most serious time. He is impatient when he holds the child for a long time. However, he feels that they are stupid and can’t sleep when he gives others a hug. He has no chance to do anything! In the meantime, it is necessary to
It seems that every cell in my body is shouting-
With what? With what? In the meantime, it is necessary to
With what, the world is so beautiful, you are so happy, but I am so miserable, no one can help me, no one can help me, no one can understand me?
Sleeping Training: The First Step of Redemption
Figure
After studying all the mainstream baby sleep books and combining Mao Tou’s situation, I finally chose sleep training. After three days, Mao Tou finally slept all the time, and the nightmare days every night ended.
No one can understand how happy I am when I can finally lie in my bed and stretch freely.
I know that until now, some people are still demonizing sleep training, some people still think it is a sin to make children cry, and some people still think that it is right to raise children to suffer from these hardships. Who let you be a mother?
Those who say these words, if you really go through what I have suffered, you really may not have me to last long.
Sleep training is a personal choice. Faced with babies who do not sleep well, some mothers choose to survive and some mothers choose to change. Only they know the joys and sorrows.
What kind of pain and helplessness did she suffer and how much did she endure and sacrifice to coax her mother alone every night, so that you could have seemingly quiet nights one by one.
If you can’t help her coax her to sleep at night, you can’t agree to her sleep training. Then at least understand and support it! In the meantime, it is necessary to
The child has pushed her to the limit. A full-load camel cannot add even one straw and will collapse.
I sincerely hope that all mothers who have not slept in the world can understand and care.
I sincerely hope that all the little kids in the world can cherish their mothers and let them sleep well ~
