Question

Is it suitable to sleep with a baby? Parents are worried about their child sleeping in this way for a long time and hope to receive medical advice.

Answer

Hello, a one-month-old baby particularly needs a sense of security. Currently, sleeping in arms is appropriate, and the baby will naturally adjust later on, so there is no need to worry excessively. For such a young baby, sleeping in arms is perfectly fine. Babies go through stages of light and deep sleep, and it’s not too late to change sleep habits when the baby grows a bit older. Additionally, for babies under 18 months old, skin-to-skin contact is extremely beneficial for their development, and moderate affection is just right for the baby.
