Is Your Baby Sleeping Enough?


For new mothers, and even for mothers whose kids have grown up a bit, understanding if your child is getting enough sleep or not is quite tricky. While many kids will immediately start showing the tell-tale signs of feeling sleepy, some kids, especially those who are hyper-active, may not immediately start showing easy signs that tell you your baby isn't getting adequate sleep time.

Here are a few signs you may look out for to understand if your baby is lacking in sleep and help them with better and extra bed time.


please remember that some all children are unique and some signs may surely vary. you will have to keep a lookout to understand what your baby is doing that signals sleep
  • scratching ears
  • irritable
  • cranky
  • tired in the day
  • falls asleep while eating
  • falls asleep in the car
  • does not want to wake up in the mornings
  • does not wake up fresh in the mornings
  • feels tired in the mornings
  • cries when you wake them up
  • wants to sleep more when you wake them up
  • some days will sleep for unusually long hours
If your baby/child shows any of the above signs, chances are they need more sleep time and the hours they are getting now are not adequate. Increase bed time and put them to bed earlier than you are doing now and see if it makes a difference.
