9 month old baby keeps waking up and making noises during sleep

Babies have certain symptoms at different times. These symptoms are actually divided into two situations: normal and abnormal. For example, if a baby keeps waking up and making a fuss while playing with water, this is actually an abnormal situation. Almost every baby will experience this situation. The symptoms caused by different situations are actually different. So what should I do if my 9-month-old baby keeps waking up and making a fuss while sleeping at night?

Physiological crying: The baby's diaper is wet or wrapped too tightly, the baby is hungry, thirsty, the indoor temperature is not suitable, the bedding is too thick, etc., which will make the baby feel uncomfortable and cry. In this case, parents only need to eliminate adverse stimulation in time and let the baby fall asleep comfortably.

Inability to adapt to the environment: Some babies cannot adapt to the natural environment and their day and night are reversed. If you pick up the baby and play with him, the crying will stop. Gradually adjust your baby's reversed day and night sleeping habits, and ask a child health doctor for guidance if necessary.

Insufficient exercise during the day: Some babies do not get enough exercise during the day and refuse to fall asleep at night and cry constantly. These babies should increase their activity during the day so that they can be tired and fall asleep peacefully at night.

Improper arrangement of nap time: Some babies cannot get up in the morning and take a nap at 2-3 in the afternoon, or the nap time is too early, so they fall asleep early at night, wake up in the middle of the night, and cry if no one is playing with them. These babies can be woken up earlier in the morning and their nap time can be adjusted appropriately so that they feel sleepy at night and can sleep soundly until dawn.

Impact of disease: Certain diseases can also affect the baby’s sleep at night. To this end, we must start with the primary disease and actively prevent and treat it.

Mothers need to provide a good, quiet and comfortable sleeping environment for their babies. In addition to factors that may make babies feel uncomfortable, such as wet diapers, too thick quilts, too high room temperature, too tight clothes, and too full dinner, mothers need to help their babies develop good sleeping habits of going to bed on time. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Make sure to sleep on time. Babies are not like adults, they don’t feel tired;

2. The whole family should go to bed at the same time. Even if the mother needs to stay up late, she should keep quiet;

3. Don’t sleep with the lights on. This is very bad and will affect the baby’s nerves and naturally affect sleep.

4. Before your baby goes to sleep, let him calm down and don’t let him play too excitedly. The TV he watches or the stories he listens to before going to bed make him overly excited and nervous. His brain is still in an excited state after falling asleep, which can easily lead to restless sleep.
