do babies sleep more during growth spurts

Baby Position In 4th Month Of Pregnancy - In early pregnancy, resting your baby as much as possible is important.  When you are out and about or doing activities with your child, make sure that you have somewhere to place him or her. Perhaps you can take them to the doctor or find a sitter.  If you do not yet have any space near you, then consider buying some comfortable chairs or sofas for the entire family. You could also think about investing in good shoes (compared to flat feet) or purchasing a foot stool, which comes in very handy when you need to stand up quickly.

Front sitting

The front sitting position is great for feeling close to your baby. You can talk, watch music , or do anything else you want during these first four months . This is also known as the hang-out mode because you’re hanging out with your baby instead of doing an activity.

You need to be conscious of your bladder while in this position, so try not to drink too much water before getting down on hands and knees. Plus, eating can be difficult when you're in a prone position.

When you've got some extra time, it's good to spend it in more comfortable positions. Whether you have the option of resting back or not, this will help relieve discomforts due to pregnancy.

Back lying

With this position, you will lay with your baby on your chest while they sleep. This is a comfortable position for both parties, as you will be facing them while they are sleeping at just about an arm’s length distance from you.

This may help reduce feelings of nausea by putting pressure on your abdomen. You also won’t feel like you need to throw up when you lie down.

However, you might have some difficulties getting back into bed after sitting up. Also, it can be difficult to get into a deep sleep with another person laying next to you.

Back sitting

Imagine that you are giving birth to baby girl. She is lying quietly in her mother’s belly, feeling warm and comfortable. You hold your hands over hers, making little touches with one hand then the other.

You work slowly, gently pushing up while letting down again. A whole world of love grows inside her! At last, she opens her eyes.

Here comes baby boy! His arms open wide , his nose takes in air quickly, and he immediately starts crying because this is home—the most beautiful place on earth.

On your back

Once you’ve had all the tests, passed at least 6 weeks and don’t have any other complications (like multiple birth defects), most hospitals will let you go home when there is no complication during pregnancy.

But it can be difficult coming to terms with one child going through surgery and then walking out the same door as another. And while people are really helpful, they may still ask you questions like why not just try to keep pregnant until the end?

This is when mothers know that their best choice is to wait and see what happens by the time they get around to having the baby. It’s obviously not ideal, but it’s much better than bringing a premature infant into the world who needs medical care .

Side lying


More and more mums-to-be turn to side lies due to discomfort with squatting positions.

Side Lying is useful for women who have difficulties getting into standard position, or who have limited mobility due to pregnancy-related conditions such as short legs or abdominal ligaments that are not very strong. 

It may also be helpful for those whose heads rotate during delivery.

This position offers lower pressure on the uterus and falls back after birth which can help reduce hemorrhoids and pain. Experts recommend it for at least two hours every day until weeks before give birth.

To achieve side lie, start by sitting on a folded chair. Then lean forward with your elbows on the table. If you cannot sit down, then place your knees on the floor. Keeping your eyes closed helps feel better to both body and mind.

If you feel tired, try closing your eyes only half way. Still feeling uncomfortable? Open them fully! The idea is to slowly relax your muscles throughout the whole process.  

Side sitting

Sitting with your side towards the baby gives your back extra support and is easier then you might think. Start by facing the wall, placing your hand on it for support. Then turn yourself to face the window, putting your left shoulder next to it.

Now move into position so that your feet are near the floor. You can keep your heel firmly against the wall or shift away from the wall if you would prefer more room.

Place your hands together like you’re praying. Then lower your knees until they are parallel to the floor. This is called tabletop pose .

You can make this change into a prayer once you get the hang of it. When you feel ready, breathe deeply and slowly raise your arms above your head. Make sure to do this comfortably and without strain.

Your spine is now neutral (not curved). With each breath, let the pelvis drop downward to bring balance to the body.

Contemplative mindful meditation

Although most women start out lying down, over time more and more babies are being placed on their backs. This is known as supine position, or lying flat in bed. In fact, some mothers who cannot stand for longer periods of time (such as after giving birth) may need help getting onto their pads.

However, not all new moms-to-be can be upright. Many workers have difficulty walking and keeping awake at night due to pregnancy symptoms. By laying back, you are taking advantage of your body’s natural defenses to handle the baby while avoiding pain from sitting or standing for too long.

When pregnant woman are anxiousor stressful, blood pools below the pelvis. That way fetus has enough protection. However, when we are nervous, adrenaline increases these pools. When hormones decrease those pools, it is easier to give birth.

Adrenaline helps keep us focused and active until there is no longer a need to do so. It also helps us resist food that is going to taste bad. Once the child is born, hormone levels drop and we feel exhausted.

Herbal supplements claim they can boost hormonal balance, but research shows this does not happen naturally. If you believe you are suffering from exhaustion, stress, or anxiety, talk to your doctor before adding an herbal supplement.
