Kiele’s practice / pattern of sleeping

Our baby Kiele’s practice of sleeping. When baby Kiele wakes up in the middle of her sleep – she cries for sometime puts her head up and looks around just to see if anyone is watching her or if anyone is in the room. The moment she sees somebody her volume of crying increases further in order that someone in the room will carry her. I have learnt by lifting or talking to her sleep is totally disturbed and then she becomes very cranky.

Now what I do is – the moments she lifts her head up to see around – we just stop moving or looking at her . She knows that nobody is around her – she may make some noise that lasts for less than a minute and then she is quite and sleeps again without any hassles.

The incident that happened while I was away at someone’s house over the weekend. As usual baby had a bath and she normally sleep for long hours in the afternoon provided nobody hellos her or lifts her when she wakes up in between. So as usual after sometime she woke up and as usual looked around with wide eyes open and started making sounds so a relative tried to talk to her and there she started making louder noise for which she had no choice but lift her. Then she needs to be pampered and carried the whole time for which we had to do. I explained it to everyone out there that in case anyone of you hear her cry or sounds while she is sleeping just leave her alone – and watch her slowly. She will be fine.

The same thing happened at nite when she went to sleep and we were all in the living room chit chatting. I explained to everyone just be quiet for sometime and not to actually move and stuff. She cried for less than a minute and fell off to sleep.
