It is not easy to take care of children. Not only do you need to take good care of them, but you also need to provide them with nutrition. You must not neglect their three meals a day. Children are prone to lack of elements and calcium. Sometimes, if you are not careful, it will cause the cortical nervous system of the brain to be excited. At this time, it will cause the child to sleep very unsteadily, especially for babies aged 0 to 1. Children often cry suddenly at night. Let's find out what to do? There are many reasons why babies cannot sleep well. Parents should observe carefully to find out what causes their babies to wake up often 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 or with mucus in the nose 4. Playing 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. Do not play too excitedly before going to bed, and do not tease the baby excessively. 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. 5. Pay attention to whether there are pinworms outside the anus. 6. Food accumulation, indigestion, getting angry or eating too much at night can also cause restless sleep. It is recommended to feed solid foods such as porridge and noodles at least two or three hours before going to bed, and then drink a little milk before going to bed. 7. When you find your child is sleepy, put him in the crib immediately. It is better to let your baby fall asleep on his own if you hold or rock him to sleep every time. Then whenever he wakes up at night, he will need you to hold him or rock him to fall asleep. If the baby has no other reasons for discomfort, a large part of the reason for waking up frequently at night is habit. If you hold him or feed him immediately every time he wakes up, it will form a vicious circle. It is recommended that when the baby wakes up at night (he should be groggy), do not hug him immediately, let alone tease him. Instead, pat him immediately, comfort him and try to make him fall asleep. Generally, if a baby is in a drowsy state, he will slowly fall asleep. 8. The quilt or sleeping posture is uncomfortable The reason why many children suddenly cry at night is actually very normal. The quilt is uncomfortable on weekdays, and the diaper is too wet, the buttocks are too wet, and eczema may cause the child to cry constantly. Mothers should carefully observe the child's physical movements and take good care of the baby. |
