What should I do if my baby doesn’t sleep well?

I believe that many young mothers have this problem - their babies don’t sleep well and can’t sleep well every night. Before I give advice to young mothers, I would like to say to mothers all over the world, “Thank you for your hard work.” Being a mother is really a happy and hard thing, especially for young mothers who have to balance work during the day and take care of children at night, so they are often not very satisfied. Today we will provide these young mothers with some solutions to their baby’s poor sleep. In fact, if mothers pay more attention to their babies, their babies’ sleep will gradually improve.

Next, the editor will get to the point. According to experts, there are mainly these problems. 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 you are zinc deficient, you will usually suffer from ulcers at the corners of your mouth.

2. Too hot or too cold 3. Too dry or with nasal mucus 4. Playing too excitedly before going to bed, go to bed on time. One hour before the baby goes to sleep, the baby should be calmed down. Do not play too excitedly or tease the baby too much before going to bed. 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. 5. Pay attention to whether there are pinworms outside the anus. 6. Many mothers think their babies are hungry when they see them wake up crying at night, and then they feed them. In fact, this is a very bad habit. Doing so will instead cause the child to develop the habit of wanting to breastfeed when he wakes up at night. 7. Food accumulation, indigestion, getting angry or eating too much at night can also lead to restless sleep. It is recommended to feed porridge, noodles and other solid foods at least two to three hours before going to bed, and drink a little milk before going to bed.

This is the main solution that this editor provides to everyone for the problem of babies not sleeping. Mothers can choose the correct conditioning method according to their baby’s condition. I hope this will be helpful to everyone, and I wish every one of our babies can have a good sleep.
