]]>All the electronic devices stimulate your kid’s attention and make it want to have with electronic things like TV, iPads, iPods etc. This can make it really hard for you to get your kid to bed as it won’t be willing to stop playing with the electronics.
Sitting side by side watching TV is not a kind of connect time that we have on mind. Try quietly playing with blocks or stuffed animals on the floor together. You may also invent stories and exchange ideas.
Kids find it soothing to know that for everything and everyone around them is also a bedtime. Say goodnight to various things in their room and after that say goodnight to your kid as well.

]]>All new parents are concerned about the comfort of their baby. However, you should note that any bedding material in the bed space could cause suffocation. Newborns do not have control over their heads and necks. Pillows could cover their mouths and noses.
Parents are advised to use only a firm sleep surface, and kids should be laid on their backs.
Toddlers can begin to use pillows at 2 to 3 years of age. This should ideally happen when the child is transitioning to a regular bed. At this age, they can move their heads whenever they are uncomfortable so you won’t have to worry about a suffocation hazard.
Don’t worry; a baby will not be uncomfortable without a pillow. Since they are not used to sleeping with it, babies won’t need pillows. Even at 2 to 3 years, they still don’t need pillows. Be sure to choose a sleeping arrangement that they are comfortable with.
When decorating the crib, use a fitted sheet on the firm mattress. Don’t add any stuffed animals or blankets. Soon your child will be old enough for all that.

]]>Using pillows can come in handy when you feel restless. Use it for belly and back support. Tuck in the pillow between the bent knees to support the lower back. The side sleeping position is recommended for pregnant women. Tucking the pillow behind the back helps maintain this position all through the night.
An extra pillow can also soothe heartburn. Try an extra pillow to push up your head as you sleep. Many expectant mothers feel relieved when they raise the head of the bed. You can do this by sliding pillows under the mattress head.
Use an egg crate mattress pad on your mattress for hip relief. It helps promote a better quality of sleep especially when your hips hurt when you rest on your side.
What you eat and when you consume the food can affect sleep quality. So it would help if you were careful about this. Taking a warm glass of milk before bed can help aid sleep. Lots of experts believe that the amino acid L-tryptophan makes the eyelids heavy when it increases the level of serotonin in the brain.

]]>Most of the time, it may be nothing to worry about. Here are some steps to take when they occur:
When you notice that the child is having night terrors, don’t wake it up. Forcing your baby to wake up may make it more difficult when it’s time to go back to bed. Just ensure that the child is safe. You can hold the child down, so it doesn’t hit his head on the crib.
This includes not staying up late. Kids should get adequate sleep, so ensure that they sleep earlier. Don’t wait until they are too tired before putting them to bed.
Reduce any stress the child may be facing, as this may be a part of the problem. Also, make sure that you stick to the routine even while you’re traveling.
Night terrors usually stop in a short while if you follow the tips above. When they become too frequent, it is time to inform the pediatrician about the problem. Before going to the doctor, note patterns during the nightmares and document it. This will ease the diagnosis, and the doctor will come up with an effective solution.
