i am so much stressed out with my motherhood phase. i just gave birth last month and been so tired and stressed with this sleepless nights dealing with my baby who won't actually sleep during at night, he seems to be so active though.

newborns normally sleep during the day time and are awake at night. it is very stressful indeed and hopefully by the second month your baby may adjust and follow our normal sleeping time. you also have to take some rest to gain energy in taking care of your baby.

i had difficult experience too but i got used to it. don't worry because it will just be hard during the first month and maybe until the second month but it is all worth it.

this happens every night? that's a major sacrifice. maybe you should need to put him asleep right beside if you if he's sleeping alone in the crib.


joyce - November 14th, 2010 5:41 AM

well, that is actually the consequence of being a mommy and you need to know that babies are actually most of the time awake during night time.

why don't you try to have a recline rocker for him for just some few nights until he get used to go to sleep alone in the crib.

well you know a month old baby is just too young to sleep all by himself. you could have at least a bassinet where you can place your son just right next to your bed.


valerity - November 14th, 2010 6:25 AM

it is actually common for newborn babies where they tend to have this switched scheds of sleeping during nights and days.


emily - November 14th, 2010 6:41 AM

you should try to take naps whenever your baby is at sleep so in case if he's awake during night time, you are not that tired enough to guard him.

first off, congratulations to a newborn baby and of course welcome to motherhood! :) be sure you are eating a full balance-diet meal and drink lots of liquid to keep you on the go all the time. naps can really help you out whenever your baby is asleep so do it as often as there's a chance.

did you ever try to put hims asleep with pacifier on? this will keep him busy with the pacifier until he will fell off to sleep and of course he should be on his bassinet just right about on your side.

you know those experiences moms would undergo, and most of the time this are not so great experiences like sleepless nights will just passed you by. just enjoy motherhood and don't take it so seriously. be calm, and nap when needed and keep your baby fed, clean and comfy so he won't have this tantrums of crying every now and then.

if chances of getting regular sleep is not easy or in favorable for you, then you should try out sleeping together with your son, you sleep with him while he's asleep. you can both sleep much better and wide awake together.


JONROSE - November 14th, 2010 9:20 AM

having sleepless nights watching over your baby is just too stressful enough for a new mom. with this kind of scenario, everything else fails when you are weak and unconditional. just be sure that you are drinking your vitamins and supplements to keep you on the go.


cladinee - November 14th, 2010 9:22 AM

why don't you try to do some alternatives like asking your mom's help. you can let her help you take care of the baby during at daytime and you will take over the nighttime.


monique - November 14th, 2010 9:24 AM

i know it's kind of dangerous nowadays to look for a babysitter. but if you are really really tired, you might consider getting a babysitter to have some to exchange with you whenever you feel tired.
