Why does my baby always sweat when sleeping?

Generally speaking, babies sweat more than adults, but many people don’t understand why babies always sweat when they sleep. Why is it that no matter in winter or summer, the baby will not stop sweating within half an hour of sleeping, and the back of the head and back will sweat the most? I believe many mothers have heard such explanations that their babies are calcium deficient. So what is the reason? Why does the baby always sweat when sleeping?

The baby's metabolism is active, the skin is relatively hydrated, and the ability to self-regulate cold and heat is poor. Therefore, most of the time, babies sweating while sleeping is physiological, and mothers don’t need to worry too much. However, if other complications or abnormalities are found, be sure to take your baby to see a doctor in time, because some sweating is pathological.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when a baby sweats while sleeping, it is called night sweats, which is mostly caused by a weak spleen and stomach. A weak spleen and stomach will have poor ability to regulate cold and heat, especially at bedtime when the sympathetic nerves are still in an excited state, so babies are particularly prone to sweating profusely.

The baby has too many clothes. The outdated idea that “there is no June for babies” (meaning that it is not hot in June for babies) is at work. Parents are always afraid that their babies will catch a cold while sleeping, so they wrap them too much, which makes the babies sweat profusely. The phenomenon of global warming has been increasing. Even in the cold winter, babies don’t have to wear cotton-padded jackets, let alone in the summer.

The possibility of calcium deficiency cannot be ruled out. Sweating is actually good for babies as it can take away excess heat from the body. On the contrary, it is scary if the baby does not sweat, as it is likely that he has some disease. But when babies sweat a lot, while taking away heat, they may also take away some calcium. If calcium is not replenished in time.
