To ensure good morning for the baby, first of all, you need to wake up in a good mood to mom. Try to wake up a little earlier than the child so that there is time to take care of yourself. Opening your eyes, smile, stretch, enjoy a new day. Having set yourself up for a positive wave, wash yourself, get dressed (put on clothes that are convenient for breastfeeding), comb your hair, and be sure to warm your hands. In general, do everything to appear in front of the baby in the image of a "home" mother. And now you can safely go to the nursery. The most important for the development of the baby are considered the impressions and sensations that he receives with the help of vision, hearing, smell and touch. Morning determines the mood for the whole day, and it is very important that he sees, hears and feels the crumbs immediately after waking up. Opening his eyes and seeing a beautiful peppy mommy, the child will definitely get a lot of positive emotions.
If mom didn’t sleep, she’s in trouble, she’s nervous, she shouldn’t rush to the child, it’s better to calm down first and put herself in order.
Chippers - Chippers
During sleep, the body is in a relaxed state and after waking up, it needs some kind of impetus for a surge of vigor. Starting at two weeks of age, the child can begin to do light exercises. While the baby is not able to consciously move the arms and legs, give him a small neat massage. Stroke on the back, tummy, arms, legs. Gentle touches to the body will give a surge of energy, make the blood circulate faster through the veins. And most importantly, they will give the crumbs a lot of positive emotions and will cheer up the whole day.
Let the baby soak in the crib
If for some reason you did not have time and the baby woke up without you, that's okay. If the mother was not around when the child woke up, and the baby, opening her eyes, behaves calmly, she is unlikely to hear a call-out scream. And the child is silent, do not rush to pick him up. Let him soak up the bed, examine the arms and legs, stretch sweetly, walk around, looking at his favorite toys. Being alone with him, let the child learn to think, reflect. Inspecting the native room with his eyes, he is imbued with home comfort and peace. When the baby wants to communicate, he will let you know about it and your mother will hear a call out.
Never come to the crib suddenly. An unexpected appearance can scare the baby. Warn the baby in advance about your approach with calm affectionate words: “My little angel woke up!” or "Good morning sun!"
.
Approaching the child, you do not need to immediately pick him up. Talk to him, gently stroke the head, unfold the diaper, do the pulls from the previous paragraph, let the baby feel your love and affection. And now you can take the baby in your arms and start the morning toilet.
If the baby waking up is accompanied by crying, then you need to pick it up immediately. Perhaps he was frightened of something in a dream and he needs your support and attention. Caress and calm the baby. Do not give the crying baby the chest, from tears and sobbing, he may choke.
Hygiene first
Teach your child to wash in the morning, starting from infancy. Let this procedure become as natural for a child as feeding. Explain that to be beautiful and healthy, you need to wash your hands, face every morning, clean your nose, ears, eyes. Accompany washing with nursery rhymes and jokes, for example: “Vodichka, vodichka, wash my face ...” or an excerpt from Chukovsky’s poem “You have to wash your face in the mornings and evenings”. Smile and be calm and relaxed, do not rush or make sudden movements. The washing procedure should bring positive emotions to the child and give a surge of vivacity for the whole day. People say: "As you start the day, so spend it." So start it positively!

I taught my childhood to get up quickly, that's for me - that's right. Otherwise, the child will get used to lying around for an hour and then you can hardly wake him up to school, and no one will adjust in the kindergarten.
Since our children are our everything, we can sometimes forget that children suffer from our bad mood. The article is informative and for myself I learned some things that I had not heard before. I also want to add that it is more comfortable for a child to sleep at a temperature of 16-20 ° C. If it’s hot, then the child sleeps restlessly, can wake up all the time, and it is easier to get diaper rash on the skin and a cold. In the baby's room, it is required to monitor the temperature regime.
That's right, we always start the morning with washbasins and other things :) At the same time I tell a bunch of poems to the little girl, she loves it) The only thing on “Unlucky”, so to speak, is that the child turned out to be an early bird and always in the morning cucumber, unlike me owls, I like boiled in the morning (it always has been).
