How much sleep does a 14 month old baby need?

A 14-month-old baby is already over one year old. For babies of this age group, parents need to pay attention to several major issues. First of all, they must pay attention to the baby's feeding. Correct feeding is very important. In addition, they must be alert to some digestive tract diseases in the baby. If you want to know whether the baby is healthy, you must learn to closely observe the baby's sleep. So how long should babies of this age sleep every day?

Fourteen-month-old baby sleep time:

When a child is 14 months old, he should sleep for about ten to 13 hours a day. When he wakes up during the day, you can take the baby out to play and bask in the sun more often. It is also more beneficial to promote the body's calcium absorption.

As the baby gets older, you can let him sleep for about two or three hours during the day, and then at night you can let him start to sleep around ten o'clock. Be careful not to let him sleep too long during the day, and keep him in a good schedule, otherwise he will have difficulty falling asleep at night.

It should be around 15 hours. There will be at least a nap at noon. Some babies can even take a short nap in the morning. Of course, each baby's physical condition is different in all aspects. As long as the baby is in good spirits, there is no need to worry.

A fourteen-month-old baby only needs to sleep for more than ten hours a day. Some babies may sleep less, but it’s okay. Don’t worry. Let them play more during the day and they will go to bed early at night. It’s okay.

The main reason why children wake up easily and cry a lot during sleep at night is that they are frightened, hungry, cold, calcium deficiency, etc., which cause the brain's nervous system to become highly excitable. It may be caused by improper eating habits, unbalanced nutrition, other physical diseases, etc.

Babies crying at night are also called "night cryers". Many babies are fine during the day, but become irritable and cry at night. People usually call these babies "night cryers". This is a common sleep disorder in babies. Reasons why babies cry at night include:

1. Physiological crying: The baby's diaper is wet or wrapped too tightly, the baby is hungry, thirsty, the indoor temperature is not suitable, the bedding is too thick, etc., which will make the baby feel uncomfortable and cry. In this case, parents only need to eliminate adverse stimulation in time and let the baby fall asleep comfortably.

2. Inability to adapt to the environment: Some babies are not adapted to the natural environment and their day and night are reversed. If you pick up the baby and play with him, the crying will stop. Gradually adjust your baby's reversed day and night sleeping habits, and ask a child health doctor for guidance if necessary.

3. Insufficient exercise during the day: Some babies do not exercise enough during the day, and refuse to fall asleep at night and cry constantly. These babies should increase their activity during the day so that they can be tired and fall asleep peacefully at night.

4. Improper arrangement of nap time: Some babies cannot get up in the morning and take a nap at 2-3 o'clock in the afternoon, or the nap time is too early, so they fall asleep early at night, wake up in the middle of the night, and cry if no one is playing with them. These babies can be woken up earlier in the morning and their nap time can be adjusted appropriately so that they feel sleepy at night and can sleep soundly until dawn.

5. Influence of disease: Certain diseases can also affect the baby’s sleep at night. Therefore, we must start with the primary disease and actively prevent and treat it.
