Last evening Ma and I were discussing how people sleep on
their beds. Although it sounds like a weird topic to discuss but it isn’t, the
reason being me sleeping with at least five to six books by my side and not
having a proper posture while sleeping. So I ended up asking, how did I sleep
as a child? Like when I was a baby or a toddler or when grown up? Her reply was
simple. I hated books because they were related to studies and reading a story
book was a luxury.
Sleep should always be peaceful, without disturbances. And
when people say, they sleep like a baby, I, for a second, doubt their
statement. Do babies really sleep peacefully or let others sleep peacefully?
This time, during my visit back home, I met all my cousins and nephews and
niece. And one of the funniest discussions that we had was how each of us
sleep. While some complained the other snores (there are interesting sound
variations), some others said, now that their babies are grown up, they can now
manage a few good hours of sleep. In the midst of this discussion, my cousin
pointed out something interesting!
Baby G, my youngest nephew, is only 8 months old and boy, his
mom sounds like the happiest person to us. When we were pondering our questions
on whether Baby G sleeps peacefully, if he wakes up in the middles and keeps
her awake, how much effort does she need to put to get him to sleep, her answer
was simple. She uses her magic trick that Baby G sleeps like a baby should. Her
trick is nothing but a filling her baby’s stomach full and making him wear a
diaper that keeps him dry throughout the night. She says, “In the initial
months, we were asked not to use diapers to avoid skin rashes. However, now the
doctor only suggested that we use diapers that promises dryness on the inside
too because that will ensure that he gets his full sleep and wake up only when
he’s hungry.” But does the trick really work?
Apparently it does. There’s some kind of unusual pleasure in
sleeping next to a baby. In the course of attending a cousin sister’s wedding,
we all were staying together at a rented house and I decided to sleep the night
with both of them. So, when it was time for Baby G to go off to sleep, my
cousin makes him wear a Pampers Baby Dry Pants and starts talking to him in his
language. Actually we both start doing
that and watch him play and quietly doze off to sleep. At this time, my cousin
and aunt walk into our room and say, wish we had diapers in your time and had
the pleasure of putting you off to a peaceful sleep.
Baby G reminded me of Adi. Both these nephews of mine are
real sweethearts and opposites of each other. While Adi knew the tricks of
staying awake and keeping us awake till the late hours of night despite wearing
the diaper, Baby G is a quieter version. Or maybe he’s just learning and mugging
up the tricks from Adi. ;)
So in case you have baby at your place and still trying to find the way to put him/her to a peaceful sleep, try out Pampers Baby Dry Pants or find out more information at https://www.rewardme.in/tag/Pampers
