Just like adults, children also take a while to go to sleep, to unwind, to begin to relax, and to prepare for rest. A little time before bedtime\u2014brushing teeth, laying out some books, reading at night in dim light, and singing a song\u2014can be a good preface to help them fall asleep.<\/li>\n<li style=\"\\\"text-align:\" justify;\\\"><strong>BATHROOM<\/strong>\u00a0as a relaxing principle. Creating habits is a difficult task due to the consistency required, but bathing, water, scents, and contact are some of the most effective tools for preparing that bedtime routine. Lavender and lemon balm relax the body and mind, especially in our little ones, who are more susceptible to this type of stimulation.<\/li>\n<li style=\"\\\"text-align:\" justify;\\\">Put your baby to bed <b>SOON<\/b>Don&#039;t fall into the trap of keeping your baby awake so they&#039;re more tired. Always pay attention to the signs that your little one is sleepy; rubbing their eyes, yawning, scratching their ears, or seeing a decrease in physical activity, which can indicate they&#039;re more whiny and lose interest in playing. Don&#039;t be afraid to move bedtime forward because an overtired child may take longer to fall asleep. Studies show that babies\/children who go to bed earlier also sleep more.<strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"\\\"text-align:\" justify;\\\">Always<strong> WITHOUT CRYING<\/strong>\u00a0because it generates high levels of stress that will impact the quality and quantity of sleep and emotional development, leading to difficulties controlling emotions, low self-esteem, mistrust, and insecurity. Holding your baby is highly beneficial, especially from birth to 18 months. Use key sounds like &quot;Shhhhh&quot; or gently say the phrase &quot;Calm down, it&#039;s time to sleep.&quot; Repeat the sound or phrase when you&#039;re calming your baby so they associate it with sleep.<\/li>\n<li style=\"\\\"text-align:\" justify;\\\"><strong>WAIT. <\/strong>Don&#039;t respond to every little noise your baby makes. Learn to distinguish a real cry from a fuss or a sleepy sound. If you&#039;re unsure, it&#039;s okay to wait a bit before returning to the room, giving your baby a chance to manage in the process.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Cristina Oroz Bajo<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"\\\"alignleft\" size-medium wp-image-481\\\" src=\"\\\"https:><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pon en tu RUTINA el BA\u00d1O siempre PRONTO y SIN LLORAR \u00a0y ESPERA&#8230; que tu peque\u00f1o&#8230; DORMIR\u00c1!
