Sleeping again! Getting babies to sleep better at night.

When Krit was one year old he has problem with his night sleep. The problem was he could not stay asleep throughout the night. He would wake up at 2.30am every night and refuse to go back to sleep. He will cried for almost 1 hour. wow...this is a peak time to have a sweet dream... Normally I will take turn with my husband to take care of him.
I did discussed this problem with doctor and some of professional fisioteraphy and they suggest to me:
  • Don't let him sleep during day time
  • Take bath before sleep
  • Do some massage
  • A darkened room
  • Put soft music on bedtime

Above tips is really work but must continuing practise it. Now he is better but must attached to me throughout the night. I read one article by Anna Thom saying that:

Little chimps cling on to their mother's chest or back, a tiny lamp follows it's mum everywhere she goes, little duckling seek shelter under mother hen's wing.....
