It may
seem strange, but lots
of baby’s skills, so important for him to be raised properly and his
personality to be rightly formed, are being developed form the first days of life. Following the day schedule and daily routine are one
of these
qualities.
Daily routine of most babies can be disrupted; they don’t distinguish between times of the day and easily mix updays and nights.
As for feedings, it also requires your parenting impact. The baby might want to eat whenever he wants to, he can start acting up, crying and demanding attention. It is important in such cases to gradually accustom him to day schedule and specific meal times. Thus you will greatly simplify your life and teach your baby about order and discipline. Of course, this process requires patience and time; it will be difficult for your baby to understand what you want from him and why you don’t feed him. He can start misbehaving and crying and you should entertain him in such moments. You can play with him, try to cheer him up, give him his favorite toy or just talk to him. Eventually, the baby will get used to the fact that it is necessary to eat at certain times, but not when he wants to.
