It is pleasant to embrace own newborn child at dark night. The kid knows that nothing happens to him, he feels heat and care of mother. But here your child grows up, becomes more senior and is stronger, and you understand that it is time for it to sleep in a separate bed. But the kid does not want, he refuses to sleep one and strives to climb under a blanket to mom with dad. What to do?
Usually the child to accustom to sleep separately at the age of 8-9 months. But nothing terrible if your kid is much more senior. Happens, as up to three years the child sleeps with parents. Most often it arises owing to weakness of parents who indulge the child and allow it "to come crawling" in a parental bed.
If the kid refuses flatly to sleep one, find out the reason of it. Perhaps, he is afraid of the dark or one is afraid to remain. In the first case it is necessary to leave included in a night lamp. In the second – mom has to sit near the kid in a bed until he does not fall asleep. If for the first time it is long enough, the child can not fall asleep the whole hour, then then these periods will become shorter and shorter.
It is before going to bed good to think up some ritual. For example, reading books or singing of songs, short fairy tale, lullabies of favourite toys. The main thing is to stack the child at the same time that it created a habit to fill up.
At first mom or dad can fill up with a row, in one bed if, of course, a bed not with high sides. However, such exit can become good option initially: the kid falls asleep in a bed with parents, and then he is transferred to the bed. If the child wakes up at night and calls parents or wants to get over in your bed, then it is necessary to stop these attempts resolutely. It is necessary to sit down near the kid, to cover him, to tell several tender words, to bring a milk, etc. But it is impossible to take it on hands at all and, especially, to shift to itself under a flank. For sleeping in a separate bed the soft toy can be good help in schooling of the child. Leaving the kid of one, "charge" to any toy – a doggie, a cat or someone else, to protect a bed. Soon your child will be accustomed to sleep with a soft toy, through it will feel parental heat.
