What to do if your newborn doesn't sleep

Newborns sleep much more than adults, and there are many factors that may affect a child's lack of sleep. It is important to find out the reason why a newborn baby does not sleep. It is also necessary to check whether it is due to the child's physical condition and create a comfortable environment for the child.

1. Adjust the appropriate temperature: If the temperature is high, the baby will feel irritable and cannot sleep well. Parents should not dress their baby in too many clothes; instead, they should wear comfortable cotton clothes. The quilt that the baby covers should be light, soft, warm and comfortable, but not too much. You can put a fan in the room to allow air circulation. When it is too hot, turn on the air conditioner, but the temperature should be kept at around 27℃.

2. The baby is born with congenital malnutrition. This is because the mother’s nutritional status is poor, which leads to insufficient calcium for the baby and affects his neurological development. This problem is not very serious. As long as the mother has enough milk and the child can eat, the milk will be replenished quickly.

3. Singing lullabies to your baby can also help him fall asleep peacefully. If your baby keeps yawning, even though he is reluctant to close his eyes and go to sleep, it means that he is very sleepy. At this time, you just need to pat him gently. If your baby is in a very good mood and not tired at all, don't worry. First, choose a song with a brisk rhythm to attract his attention and calm his emotions, and then sing a lullaby with a slow beat.

4. Change diapers frequently: It is best for babies to use diapers during the day to prevent their buttocks from getting red. If you use diapers at night, it is best to change them frequently, and not wait until you urinate a lot.
