Grow Baby Grow – When and how does babies grow? Sleeping is the answer and MamaLittleHelper's Baby Hammock will help you get there!

You maybe wondering, how does baby grow? According to an article in the Parent’s Online Magazine, one section where it says “She suddenly hibernates” actually states that babies grow when they sleep. According to the article, a research shows that 80% of growth hormone is secreted during slumber. So, Your baby needs sleep to enable her body to produce those hormones," says Joan DiMartino-Nardi, M.D., a pediatric endocrinologist at the Children's Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center, in the Bronx. She also mentioned that “parents should never force a baby to stay awake or adhere to her normal sleep schedule—you'll only make her cranky. Plus, she needs all the energy she can muster to keep growing.” If you do a google search with key word “Growth hormone”, you will see that it is a fact that the growth hormone is produce when human sleeps. The growth hormone crucial as it is the one responsible for a baby’s physical growth, is secreted mostly during the deep stages of a baby’s sleep

Though, I know that some of you are not trying to keep your babies awake. You are actually trying to get them to sleep. You may have tried all the ways you can to get them to sleep but unsuccessful especially new born. Why? The reason is because they are so used to be in mama’s womb for over 9 months. They are so used to being cuddled and bounced most of the time when you are awake. It is hard for them to get use to the environment right away. Typically, for the first 2 weeks, they are usually ok as they tend to sleep most of the time but as they grow over 2 weeks, they tend to learn new things and then, they realized, this is not what I am used to and I don’t like it and tend to be fussy and cranky. That is when MamaLittleHelper’s Baby Hammock will come in handy.
