Why is my 10-month-old baby restless when sleeping?

A 10-month-old baby has already developed a certain ability to adapt to the external environment. They are also not as susceptible to viral diseases as they are when they are just born. However, sleep and stool are still the standards for measuring the baby's health. If the baby does not sleep well at night, it will easily cause symptoms of malnutrition. Let's take a look at why a 10-month-old baby does not sleep well.

1. Sometimes babies eat too much, causing abdominal discomfort; or they don’t eat enough and feel hungry, and they will cry and refuse to sleep. If this is the reason, you should continue to explore the rules to ensure that the baby eats the right amount and does not get too full or too hungry.

2. If the diaper is wet and not changed in time, or the clothes are too tight or the quilt is too thick, making the baby feel uncomfortable, he will also express his "protest" by crying and refusing to sleep. Therefore, you should try to let your baby wear loose and soft clothes to sleep, and the quilt should be of appropriate thickness. Diapers should be changed promptly if they are wet.

3. Check whether the baby has been bitten by mosquitoes or has eczema, as this will cause unbearable itching of the skin, especially at night when the baby is quiet. Babies cannot express themselves and can only attract their parents' attention by crying and refusing to sleep.

4. Check your baby’s trace elements. Calcium deficiency may also cause such symptoms.

5. Abdominal pain caused by a cold abdomen may also lead to poor sleep. Mothers should pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm, give the baby more warm water, and you can let the baby wear a small belly band.

6. Is the air in the room too dry, causing discomfort to the baby's upper respiratory tract? It is recommended to give the baby more water. It is best to use a humidifier in the room or place a few basins of water in the room to increase the humidity in the room.

7. If the baby is frightened, you can take some Xiaoer Jingfeng San orally. When your baby cries and refuses to sleep, you should never fail to find out the reason and just try to force him to sleep by holding him, patting him, walking around and coaxing him. If you do this frequently, he will develop bad sleeping habits. Moreover, since doing so does not eliminate the root cause that affects the baby's sleep and the baby cannot get a good rest, it will affect the baby's health in the long run, so a neurological development test can be done on the baby.

The above is the explanation for the 10-month-old baby’s restless sleep. There are two main factors that cause restless sleeping: one is the problem of sleeping environment, and the other is the problem of baby’s diet. So when mothers are looking for why their babies are restless sleeping, they can start from these two aspects.
