Bedtime tips:
Encourage bb to sleep while there are background noises goin on. This way bb wun expect silence at bedtime
Put a selection of toys in the cot to provide amusement if she wakes early
Make night feeds as quick and quiet as possible, keepin the lights low and changing bb first. Dont do anything stimulating
Put bb down to sleep in the cot at night so that she comes to associate it with sleep.
Cleanin bb teeth:
As soon as bb first tooth appear, clean the teeth every morning and nite. Cleanin at nite is very important before bed because the flow of protective saliva decrease when bb is asleep. which means any sugar in the mouth allow the plaque to stay acidic for a prolong period. Brushing in the morning help to remove any build up of plaque that has occured during nite. tink tis is why puttin bb to sleep during milk time is not good bah...
