Your baby always makes you happy.That he is the main meaning of life. But for a young mother, it often happens that she gets very tired from caring for a baby. Particularly exhausting everyday motion sickness for daytime, evening and night sleep. When the baby is still quite small, it is easy to put him to bed. But when he grows up and gaining weight, it is difficult for a woman to physically rock him. And she begins to think about how to teach a child to fall asleep on their own. In this quest, she can help the method of Dr. Estiville. In this article we will try to talk about it.
Spanish doctor Estilville concluded thatA child under 5 must have a normal night’s sleep; he must learn to fall asleep without the help of his parents. Then in the future he will have no insomnia and other problems. If up to 5 years old a child cannot go to bed without her mother's help, then in adulthood a person will suffer from sleep problems. According to the Estiville method, the child can already sleep for six months in his own room, in the dark and not wake up all night. You just need to teach him that. And do not try to look for excuses: intestinal colic, teeth, illness, just engage in teaching the child to a healthy sleep.
So the first thing you have to do isrefuse to motion sickness. Now you will not help the child fall asleep. You must be calm, confident in your abilities. Near you should be a baby's toy, a pacifier and a cot in which the child is sleeping. By doing the same thing every day, your baby will gradually get used to the evening bedtime ritual. The Estiville method involves putting children in the winter at 20: 00-20: 30 and in the summer at 20: 30-21: 00. It is at this time the easiest to fall asleep.
Estiville Method, which helps a child fall asleep:
- Put the baby in the crib.Behave as usual, naturally. Cover him with a blanket. Sensing something amiss, your baby will most likely immediately rise or begin to cry when he sees that his mother wants to leave the room. Do not immediately try to lay it again. Sit down next to the cot, tell the child in a tender voice that "your mother wants to teach you to sleep, look, you have a bear near you, you're not alone."
- После этого положите малыша обратно, пожелайте good night and leave the room. Be prepared for the child to do everything possible for you to return. He will make tantrums, cry out loud, stand by the bed, be nervous. We advise you to have patience and courage, because the struggle has just begun. In no case do not give up and do not take the baby in his arms to rock. He will understand that he can achieve his goal, and the Estiville method will not work.
- После того как вы вышли из комнаты, каждые 3-5 minutes come back. But not to calm or help to sleep, but to show that mom is near and has not gone away. When he returned, say that you need to sleep and wish good night. Gradually, the time can be increased to 5-10 minutes or more.
- Gain strength, endure the most problematic firstdays Worth torment once, but then your child will be able to learn how to fall asleep on their own! Usually, babies cry for about an hour or two, after which they fall asleep.
Many do not recognize the Estiville method, reviews of itleave the bad, they think that this can spoil the child's psyche. But other moms say that it really helps to get rid of motion sickness. At the same time, the child remains psychologically healthy. To adopt the Estilville method or not, each mother decides for herself.
