Japanese babies sleep between their parents. Their position symbolizes a river between two banks.
This picturesque views of collective sleeping shows the intimacy between parents and their children, and how co-sleeping creates a unity of the family. In contrast, modern Western societies emphasize the need for independence and individuality. As such, we have put the child in his own bed to sleep, used in his own room. Even if we told by the health visitor that it is much better, even to aBaby in the neighborhood, in your room has a bed, we are excited about "excuses" such as "He is so loud at night," "I have no privacy" etc. to him again in his own bed cot can be accommodated in another room.
Sleeping in a bed, away from the parents and / or siblings is a modern phenomenon, no older than 200 years. For thousands of years before we sleept cooperation with our parents, our siblings and family. The modern forms of life are ruled by individuality and independence, inin turn create a society that increased anti-social behavior and loneliness loneliness.
The anthropologist James McKenna research to find out the truth about co-sleepers. He found that when a baby with his mother, the pattern of brain wave activity, heart rate, muscle movement and breathing for remarkably similar in both. During sleep, the mother and child show a deep connection. Their experience of sleep is mutual as they do the same sleep patterns share. In fact, it wassuggested that sleeping close to the mother helps the baby "learn" how are we to explain sleep sure why the sleep patterns of the two are so in sync.
Unfortunately, today's perception of the bedrooms is to be understood with the parents, an emotional dependence that is seen as a negative trait in human development to create.
Another reason why people go a long way from being common sleep more of a threat than a blessing for baby development is the fear of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome(SIDS). This phenomenon is a very controversial issue. However, recent changes have to be treated in the children a big difference in the number of sudden infant death made: For many years, parents were told that their children down, so that should not smother the child lay in his own vomit. However, since the parents were instructed to place their children openly, instead of down the level of SIDS decreased rapidly. Since the new advice was given, in the UK alone has been90% reduction in the incidence of SIDS from 1981 to 1992 .*
In combination with co-sleeping, research has shown that mothers instinctively put their babies on their backs as this position makes it easier for them at night to nurse to check the child and the child the freedom to move, so fewer likely will be forced into an uncomfortable position. As co-sleeping, mothers instinctively their children in a position that allows them face to face in the night.This seems the natural position for both, if they lie on their backs and have a choice where they seek, they move their heads facing each other. One might consider that there is a danger facing each other, when the mother is breathing a huge amount of carbon dioxide. Nevertheless, the research suggests that an atmosphere of CO2 in the face could also help children learn to breathe, because their brain is triggered to regulate breathing.
Moreover, the fact that the direct skin-to-skin has been shownContact, especially for premature infants, is very important, as long as they do not get overheated.
Mothers are very instinctive when they sleep together with their new babies and kiss again and again to touch and adjust the child, often during sleep. In contrast to sleep in her own room, shared sleeping babies are under constant supervision.
The individual experience of working with a sleeping child is very intense. As parents, we take great responsibility for bringing up our babies and childrensure. We consider that keeping children and parents together to grow. As their needs change, so do the answers that a dynamic two-way system requires that represent each other. The parent-child relationship is through an interactive system that the infant's biological needs met characterized. As such, co-sleeping is an important part of this relationship and helps to meet the needs of both parents and babies to bond markets, of course.
