Things to pay attention to when your child wakes up at night

For children, they should have a relatively peaceful sleep at night. However, many parents find that their children always wake up at night and they don’t know why. They always have poor sleep. This makes parents very worried. The healthy growth of their children is the parents’ greatest hope. Why do children often wake up at night? What should we pay attention to when children get up at night?

1. Lack of trace elements and low blood calcium levels will cause increased excitability of the brain and autonomic nerves, resulting in the baby's restless sleep at night. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation is needed. If calcium is deficient, the baby's fontanelle will not close well; if zinc is deficient, the corners of the mouth will generally ulcerate.

2. Too hot or too cold

3. Too dry, with mucus in the nose

4. Don’t play too excitedly before going to bed, go to bed on time: 0.5 to 1 hour before the baby goes to sleep, the baby should be calmed down. Don’t play too excitedly before going to bed, and don’t tease the baby too much. This prevents your baby from having difficulty falling asleep due to being too excited or nervous. No stimulating TV shows, no tense or scary stories, and no new toys. Create a good sleeping environment for your baby. The room temperature is suitable, quiet and the light is dim. The covering should be light, soft and dry. Let your baby urinate before going to bed.

When children go to bed at night, it is the time for them to develop. If children do not sleep well, it is very likely to affect their normal development. Therefore, parents must pay attention and understand what precautions should be taken when children get up at night? If this symptom still occurs, you must go to the hospital for examination in time and then take the appropriate medicine.
