As a new parent, you are likely experiencing the overwhelming joy and love that comes with having a baby. However, you might also be experiencing the exhaustion and stress that comes with caring for a newborn. One of the biggest challenges for new parents is getting their baby to sleep. Babies are known for their love of sleeping with motion. Whether it's in a car, a stroller, or being rocked in someone's arms, babies find comfort and relaxation in the gentle swaying and rocking movements. But it can be exhausting for parents to rock their little angle to sleep.
There is a solution! And there are also very good reasons why babies love sleeping with motion so much. So keep on reading!
The secret behind why babies love to sleep with movement so much
Movement is reminiscent of the womb
Babies spend nine months in the womb, where they are constantly surrounded by movement. As their mother moves around, the baby is gently rocked and swayed, creating a sense of comfort and security. When babies are born, they are suddenly thrust into a world that is still and quiet, which can be unsettling. Sleeping with motion can help recreate the feeling of being in the womb, which can be soothing and calming for babies.
It helps them fall asleep faster
There are phases where it is difficult to get the little one to sleep, but many parents find that motion can help. The gentle rocking and swaying can help lull babies into a state of relaxation, making it easier for them to fall asleep. This is especially true for babies who are colicky or have trouble settling down.
It can improve sleep quality
Not only does sleeping with motion help babies fall asleep faster, but it can also improve the quality of their sleep. The gentle movements can help keep babies in a deeper sleep, reducing the likelihood of them waking up frequently during their nap. This can be a lifesaver for parents who are craving some down-time themselves.
It can aid in digestion
Babies are prone to digestive issues. Colic is not unusual in the world of babies. Sleeping in motion can help aid in digestion by keeping the baby's body in a slightly upright position. Additionally, the gentle movements can help move gas and other digestive issues through the baby's system, reducing discomfort and fussiness.
So, rock your baby to sleep!
There are many reasons why babies love to sleep with motion. From recreating the feeling of the womb to aiding in digestion, the gentle rocking and swaying can be incredibly soothing and calming for babies.
