Health Tip: Help Baby Develop Healthy Sleep Habits
Try not to interfere with the infant's natural sleep patterns
By Diana Kohnle
(HealthDay News) -- It's never too early to teach infants sleep habits that will help prepare them for a lifetime of healthy sleep.
The National Sleep Foundation offers these guidelines:
- Look for baby's natural sleep patterns and when he or she starts to get sleepy.
- Place baby in the crib sleepy, but not asleep.
- Create a consistent daytime and nighttime sleep schedule, and a soothing bedtime routine.
- Make sure the environment is dark, cool, and otherwise conducive to sleep.
- Teach baby to fall asleep on his or her own and to self-soothe to sleep.
