As soon as the baby is born, he needs to be fed, and most mothers will choose to breastfeed, and I believe you are one of them. However, when breastfeeding, there are many problems that often bother mothers, and may make mothers want to give up breastfeeding.

Mothers should know that breastfeeding their babies has many benefits, which can meet the needs of the baby's growth and make the body healthier, so mothers who have the conditions must insist on breastfeeding and feed the baby until the baby is two years old at the latest.

In the process of breastfeeding, many mothers have a question, what is the reason why breastfed babies wake up frequently in the middle of the night? In fact, there are several reasons for mothers to know as early as possible.

1. The baby falls asleep every time he is not full

When feeding at night, the baby and the mother are not very awake, at this time most of them are reluctant to turn on the light, even if it is turned on, it will turn on the dim night light, then the baby in the process of feeding, it is easy to fall asleep before eating, and after a while suddenly want to eat and wake up to eat a few bites, so repeatedly, the frequency of the baby wakes up is somewhat high.

Second, the breast milk is insufficient, and the baby is not full

Some mothers' breast milk is not sufficient, the baby has not eaten much, and wait until the next time to eat, or not enough, then the baby will not be able to sleep well every time he is not full, and it is easy to wake up frequently.

Although breast milk is good, if the amount is not enough, it will also have a great impact on the baby. The mother should judge well, if the breast milk is not enough, she should find a way as soon as possible to let the baby eat enough, not only can sleep well, but also not delay development.

3. The baby is used to feeding at night

Some babies are obviously not hungry, but they will wake up to feed, and fall asleep when they eat two mouthfuls, which shows that the baby is used to feeding at night, and it is uncomfortable not to eat two mouthfuls.

If the mother does not change in time, the baby will become more and more dependent on night milk, and it will be very difficult to wean at night, which will also affect the baby's development. Eating night milk for a long time also has a certain impact on baby teeth, and mothers should pay attention.

The above reasons can easily lead to frequent wake-ups at night, and mothers can check themselves to solve the symptoms.

Solution(s) :

1. If the baby falls asleep every time he eats, the mother should be diligent. When the baby wants to feed, the mother sits up and picks up the baby, observes the baby's feeding state, and makes the baby full at one time.

2. If the breast milk is not enough and the baby does not eat well, the mother must find a way to chase the milk. You can try to solve the problem by drinking soup and finding opportunities to rest more. If there is no effect after chasing milk, or not enough for the baby to eat, then the mother should add formula milk to the baby, which can be mixed feeding to let the baby eat full every time.

For this, the mother should not resist, timely with formula milk, it is more beneficial to the baby, on the contrary, in the case of insufficient breast milk, but also has been insisting on exclusive breastfeeding, which is very harmful to the baby, and it is also very hard for yourself.

Both mother and baby can't sleep well, and it will affect the baby's development, so mom should know.

3. If the baby is accustomed to feeding at night, the mother should change it in time. When the baby moves gently or hums, the mother should not be in a hurry to coax, let alone be in a hurry to feed, which is easy to disturb the baby's rest, and will make the baby more dependent on the mother.

If not, the mother can soothe for a while, pat gently, and then feed if it doesn't work. Be sure to get rid of the habit of feeding your baby as soon as he moves.
