What Is Sleep Quality On Baby?

Naturally, sleep-starved parents would like nothing more than for babies to adopt adult sleep patterns immediately after birth, but this, I am afraid, is impossible. Being the parent of a newborn child necessarily means incurring a sleep deficit for a few months. There is good news, however.

As the adult, you have the power to be flexible. For instance, you can win yourself some valuable sleep time by learning to sleep when the baby sleeps. After all, the newborn will have a total of sixteen to twenty hours of sleep in a twenty-four-hour day. You may be able to create a schedule that will allow you to get your eight hours of sleep some where within the many periods that your baby is asleep.

Of course, you can look forward to the time when your baby will reach the stage of growth and development when she will want to spend less of her daytime asleep, and more time exploring her environment, learning what her body and mind can do. Not surprisingly, a baby’s sleep patterns are matched by unique biological markers. At three months of age, babies develop a twenty-four-hour sleep/wakefulness cycle that parallels the development of the daily pattern in adrenocortical brain activity.

This does not mean, however, that babies will then sleep like adults. The older the baby gets, the stronger the early morning peak in the levels of the hormone cortisol. Once the rhythm of the surges of cortisol begins to mimic the pattern seen in adult biological rhythms, babies will usually begin to sleep through the night. Yet, even after that, a baby’s sleep patterns still do not resemble those of an adult. Your baby will merely have moved to the next stage of sleep evolution.

I am afraid that there is nothing you can do to speed up this process. Just enjoy your baby for who he is. Babies do not start to sleep through the night in earnest until well after the third month of life, and, even then, they may wake up periodically for comforting. Babies may sleep through some nights but awaken periodically other nights. Only after about six months do most babies sleep through most nights. There is much variation in this development, so do not worry if your baby takes a longer or shorter amount of time to reach this stage.
