I read a book,"從0歲開始". It said that we should teach bb how to sleep by herself. When bb is calm & sleepy, she will sleep. So I never 暗佢瞓.
The book said we should feed when bb wakes up, try to keep bb awake after feeding, then she will sleep when she is sleepy. You may put her in the cot to look at the toy above her if it is early in the morning. At other times, When bb is awake, you can place her in a rock chair near the window or near you, so that her attention has somewhere to go.
In the first few weeks, my bb had also similar behaviour as yours. 有時10點幾 (or even 8 點幾)開始食, 食成個鐘 (or even 2 hrs)後, 暗極佢都瞓唔到. 有時係咁(有點發狂)大喊, 有時就係咁吖吖叫, 我覺得佢好似想搵(人肉)奶咀啜咁. I just let him cry in the cot, pat his shoulder, but I did not let him sleep in my arms.
He is now also 7 wks old. At 6 or 7 in the moring, I just place him back to his cot after feeding & changing diaper if it is wet. At 9 or 10 in the morning, I clean his face before / after feeding him. My maid likes talking and playing with him when he is awake. I teach her not to carry bb often when he cries. If he is boring or sleepy and cries, we usually just 'shi' and talk to him. If he doesn't stop, we'll rock his chair and pat his shoulder to help him sleep.
Usually he falls asleep when I am feeding him at night. When it is about 30 min, I'll stop and then 掃風 & change diaper. After that I will put him to his cot. He just sleeps then.
My problem is now he sleeps so early, say 8 or 9 pm, and then wakes up for milk at 12, 1 or 2. I want to stop this. I try to wake him up at 11 or 12 to feed him. But I usually fail. He just sleeps and doesn't want milk. I don't know when I can stop feeding him at mid night.
Amypekkle,
Titig有時扭抱, ar ar 聲, I'll 拍佢help him calm down. If 佢 is still 喊得好勁, I'll 抱一陣, 直至佢 calm down 再放低佢. 如果 he still 喊得好勁, I'll help him sit in his cot and try to burp him again. if he 再勁喊, I'll feed him again. 直至佢唔喊/自己瞓到.
