Nawuphi na umama okanye utata wakutshanje uyayazi loo nto ayiyonyani ukuba iintsana zilala ubusuku bonke. Ngokuchasene noko, ngexesha lokulala kobusuku usana luvuswa kaninzi.
Kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha uvuka ufuna ubukho nonxibelelwano lukanina ukubuyela ebuthongweni.
Ngamanye amaxesha sikhathazeka kuba umntwana wethu engalali ebusuku okanye kuba engalali yedwa. Side sikholelwe ukuba unengxaki yempilo. Kodwa le yintsomi nje. Inyani yile yokuba iintsana azilali ubusuku bonke, kodwa endaweni yoko zinokuvuka okuninzi. Kwaye abadingi ukuba sibafundise ukulala, bayayazi indlela yokwenza phambi kokuba bazalwe.
Kunjani ukulala komntwana phantsi kweenyanga ezintathu?
Ukulala yinkqubo yendaleko, inxulunyaniswa nophuhliso. Kwinqanaba ngalinye lobomi bethu silala ngendlela ethile. Umntwana akalali ngathi ufikisa okanye uneminyaka engama-70 ubudala.
Kukho ukulala ngaphambi kokubeleka. Usana sele lulele esibelekweni sikanina. Ngenyanga yesibhozo, ukulala kosana kunamanqanaba amabini: ukulala kancinci nokulala okusebenzayo, okuya kuthi ekugqibeleni kube kukulala kwe-REM. Omabini la manqanaba ayatshintsha xa umntwana elele.
Emva kokuzalwa, umntwana uya kuqhubeka enezi zigaba ezimbini zokulala ezihlukeneyo. Ukulala kancinci kuqinisekisa ukuphumla ngokwasemzimbeni. Njengokuba umsebenzi womzimba womntwana ungaphakamanga kakhulu, izinga lokulala kancinci alizi kuba phezulu kakhulu.
Endaweni yoko, umyinge wenqanaba le-REM uya kuba. Kweli nqanaba le-REM, izifundo ezifundiweyo zidityanisiwe. Ngomntwana, yonke into intsha, usuku nosuku yinto eqhubekayo yokufunda. Udinga isigaba esikhulu se-REM ukuze ukwazi ukudibanisa yonke into oyifundayo, ukuze ingqondo yakho ikhule.
Isiqendu ngasinye senqanaba le-REM sithatha imizuzu engama-50 ukuya kwengama-60, ke oko kuhlala kungubude bezithuba zakho. Okanye ixesha eliphakathi kokuvuka nokuvuka.
Usana, xa ludlula kwisigaba sokulala luye kolunye, luyavuka kwaye alunako ukuphinda lulele lodwa. Ufuna ukhuseleko olunikezelwa bubukho kunye nonxibelelwano lomama okanye umnakekeli. Nangona siyazi ukuba ikwindawo ekhuselekileyo, ikhuselwe kuyo nayiphi na ingozi, umntwana akayazi le nto. Uya kuvuka rhoqo ukugcina umama esondele.
Xa umntwana evuka, uya kufuna ukuncancisa. Kukhuseleko kunye nokuzola okubonelelwa libele kwaye kuba liyalondla. Isisu somntwana sincinci kakhulu, ke kufuneka ancancise rhoqo ukuze ondle. Ukongeza, ukuncancisa rhoqo kuqinisekisa imveliso yobisi ehlengahlengisiweyo kwiimfuno zomntwana.
Ukwenza le patheni yokulala ihambelane nobomi bemihla ngemihla, nomsebenzi, kunzima. Awunakunikezela ukuba awuphumli ngokufanelekileyo.
El ukulala ngokukhuselekileyo inokuba lukhetho. Ngokubamba usana ngokusondeleyo, sinokubona imiqondiso yokuqala yokuvuka kwaye sinike intuthuzelo kunye nokhuseleko ngokukhawuleza. Ukuba sithatha isigqibo sokulala kunye, kufanelekile ukuthobela amanyathelo okhuseleko ayimfuneko.
Emini sinako zama ukuphumla xa umntwana elele, sibeka ukuphumla kwindawo yokuqala ngaphezu kwayo nayiphi na enye into. Impilo yethu iya kusibulela.
Enkosi ngeposi entle, iifoto ziyamangalisa, bunjani ubuhle, bobabini bobaba kunye nosana lwakhe kunye naloomncinci esibelekweni. Kulungile ukuba ufunde kwaye ufunde yonke into oyibhalileyo malunga nephupha labantwana. Enkosi ngolwazi.
