sleeping_babyWhat’s the most important thing for parents to keep in mind when preparing sleep training? You have to prepare yourself for the fact that it’s going to be hard, listening to your baby cry is painful, but it can help to think of it as a health issue. The earlier you start “sleep training” the better. All babies are physically able to sleep through the night by the age of six months, so this is a logical time to begin training. However, most parents will need to begin official sleep training at between three and six months, depending on the individual child.

1. Start on a Friday

2. Don’t Respond to Cries Immediately, follow the routine that you’ve established. But when your child begins to cry, wait a little longer than usual to go back into his bedroom.

3. Don’t Pick Up Baby. When you go into the room, pat your baby on the back and reassure him that everything is going to be OK. He may not stop crying, but after you reassure him, you need to gently tell him it’s time for bed and leave the room.

4. Lengthen Your Response Time

For some parents asking their kid to have nutritious meal can be very distressed. Here are some tips that I collect from some articles on supporting our child’s healthy eating habits and physical activity.

  • Eating together as a family as often as possible. Keep family meal time pleasant and positive. Avoid making comments about the amount or type of food our children takes. Pressure to eat actually reduces children’s acceptance of new or different food.
  • Making healthy food choices for our family’s meals. Children notice the choices we make and follow our example.
  • Setting limits on our child’s daily television and computer time. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a limit of 1 to 2 hours of screen time a day. Sit down with our child and plan out how he or she will use this time allowance.
