Mother 2 times more likely Built At Night

News Health Articles - Mother 2 times more likely Built At Night. Taking care of the child's mother is still synonymous with the task, because it's a mother 2 times more likely to wake up at night to take care of her children than the father.

Studies conducted by the University of Michigan shows the mother 2 times more likely to wake up at night to take care of her child. This condition generally occurs since the baby is born until he entered the age of five.



"Women have gender thinking that they are caregivers, so they tend to wake up at night and awake on average for 44 minutes while men only 30 minutes," said Sarah Burgard of the University of Michigan, as quoted from Healthland.Time, Monday (12/12/2011).

This study was conducted at 20,000 parents who worked from 2003-2007 and reported in the journal Social Forces. Generally, children who are growing or above 5 years are less likely to wake during the night.

In this study are also known to couple to work with children aged under 1 year about 32 women known to get up in the Malan report on the day to take care of their children, while men only 11 percent.

Couples with children aged 1-2 years about 10 percent of mothers and fathers woke up 2 percent, while couples with children aged 3-5 years reported 3 percent of mothers than fathers who wake up one percent.

"I'll just jump out of bed to take care of her child. Most women have the hope to become the primary caregiver after the birth, it has naturally awakened," he said.

But sleep is disturbed or not good quality sleep can affect the long-term health. If women feel tired all the time then it could hamper the productivity of its work, and influenced the way students in children.

"This has real consequences, it is expected of men and women doing the same thing. Able to divide the time up during the night and on weekends," said Burgard.
