SLEEP CONCERNS: NIGHT WAKINGS
==================================================
WHY IT HAPPENS
Your child's night waking could be rooted in poor sleep habits or a
health problem -- not teething
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7638.html ), contrary to popular
belief. Sometimes perfectly normal, healthy children will wake during
the night as they go through different stages of development or
experience separation anxiety.
Babies between the ages of four and eight months who were colicky
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/77.html ) as infants, snore
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7635.html ) or breathe through their
mouths ( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7623.html ) when asleep (a
symptom of sleep apnea ( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7632.html )),
or have inconsistent sleep schedules (going to bed too late
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7588.html ), napping at the wrong
times) are more likely to wake up in the middle of the night than their
peers. From about six months on, night waking is usually caused by not
napping ( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7596.html ) or
overstimulation ( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/7567.html ) during
the day. Discomfort caused by fever
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/84.html ) or an ear infection
( http://www.babycenter.com/refcap/83.html ) can keep your child from
sleeping soundly at any age.

WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT
As long as you're putting your baby to sleep on his own at bedtime,
it's all right to do what you think will help him go back to sleep when
he wakes up in the middle of the night, such as rocking him or pacing
the floor until he falls asleep, says BabyCenter's sleep expert Jodi
Mindell ( http://www.babycenter.com/expert/p14.html ). With a
consistent bedtime routine, night waking should diminish in a few
weeks. If this doesn't work, try this checking routine: Stay in your
baby's room for a brief time, keep contact neutral (patting him on the
back a few times is fine), and don't pick him up. Leave and return in
five-minute intervals, gradually increasing the time you are gone.
Some babies are temperamentally tougher to get to sleep, so don't
despair if your child takes longer to learn how to sleep through the
night.
Work on establishing a consistent nap schedule and a quiet bedtime
ritual ( http://www.babycenter.com/general/7913.html ) to help your
child wind down from the day's excitement. Napping well during the day
is an important component of sleeping well at night, and bedtime
routines set the stage for sleep.
