I recently visited my friend\u2019s place to meet their newborn daughter. They became <\/span>parents for the first time. <\/span>Their daughter had beautiful eyes, and so were the<\/span> new parents’ <\/span>puffy eyes. I understood that the<\/span> new parents <\/span>haven’t been getting much sleep. Sleep deprivation in <\/span>parents <\/span>has never been given much attention, but it’s high time now we work on this aspect of parenting as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here are the causes of sleep deprivation that can be risky to your life as a parent<\/span><\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Dark circles<\/b>– Puffy eyes, dark bags around the eyes appear, making you look dull and tired.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Weight gain –<\/b> Research has shown that lack of sleep can cause weight gain as well as gain in blood sugar levels.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Cold<\/b>– A person is three times more likely to catch a cold when sleep deprived due to the lack of shut-eye affects the immune system.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Depression And Anxiety<\/b>– Tired and sleep-deprived<\/span> parents<\/span> usually end up being more irritated and are more prone to feeling depressed. It also needs to have negative moods and emotions in a person.<\/span><\/li>\n

    \u00a0Here are some of the tricks and techniques for new-age parents to complete their sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u00a0A normal person requires 7-8 hours of sleep on a daily basis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Learn to say No<\/b>– There will be times when you will be overloaded with responsibilities. Prioritizing your sleep is very important and saying NO to work at times is also necessary for your mental health.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Sleep when your child sleeps<\/b>– Your child will sleep at odd hours, you also need to practice taking a nap at that time so that you get some rest.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Don’t hesitate to ask for help-<\/b> As<\/span> new parents<\/span>, never hesitate to ask for help from others. Because, you are already overloaded with stuff. Asking for help can give you some time to rest.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Start sleep training your child-<\/b> After 6 months you can start sleep training your child. You can take help from a new<\/span> parenting book<\/span> guide or groups.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
