Teething and Baby Sleep: How Malaysian Parents Can Cope
Few phases are as challenging for parents as teething. Around 4–7 months, babies start cutting their first teeth — and with it comes fussiness, drooling, and of course, disrupted sleep. 🍼💤
1. Why Teething Disrupts Sleep 🦷
-
Teething causes gum pain & soreness → babies wake more often at night
-
Increased drooling → can cause coughing or skin irritation
-
Babies may chew on anything for relief, disrupting normal bedtime routines
👉 That’s why Google searches like “teething baby not sleeping Malaysia” and “how to soothe baby at night teething” spike frequently.
2. Signs Your Baby’s Sleep Problems Are Teething-Related 🔍
-
Excessive drooling 💧
-
Red, swollen gums
-
Increased fussiness and crying, especially at night
-
Biting on toys, fingers, or anything nearby 🧸
-
Disturbed naps and shorter sleep cycles
3. Tips to Help Babies Sleep Better During Teething ✅
-
Use a chilled teething ring (not frozen) to soothe gums ❄️
-
Massage baby’s gums gently with a clean finger
-
Offer extra comfort at bedtime (rocking, lullabies, gentle pats) 🎶
-
Maintain routines → don’t skip bedtime rituals even if baby is fussier
-
Keep bedding clean by changing drool-soaked sheets often 🧼
4. Why Mattress Choice Still Matters 🛏️
During teething, babies often drool more and may spit up at night. This makes hygiene and comfort even more important:
-
Waterproof covers → protect against drool and stains 💧
-
Breathable fabrics → keep babies cool when they’re restless 🌬️
-
Firm, supportive core → prevents discomfort from sinking in
