Why does my baby not like to sleep at night?

Babies don’t like to sleep at night and often cry all the time, which also affects the sleep quality of parents. Some people think that the baby’s development mainly occurs during sleep. If the sleep quality at night is not good, it will also affect the baby’s absorption and digestion of nutrients, leading to malnutrition, etc. Let us understand why babies don’t like to sleep at night?

Symptoms of calcium deficiency include proper sun exposure. The VD2 in sunlight can effectively help the absorption of calcium and promote the baby's sleep. The baby should be exposed to the sun between eight and nine o'clock, preferably not later than ten o'clock, and not later than eleven o'clock in winter. When basking in the sun: pay attention to protecting your baby's eyes (the baby's eyes are not fully developed yet), do not face the sun directly, otherwise the eyes will be easily hurt; if the sun is too hot, you can also bask in the shade of a tree, there are gaps between the leaves, and there is the shadow of the sun under the shade. It only takes half an hour to an hour a day.

Babies with rickets are often irritable and restless at night, and no amount of coaxing from their parents is of any use. Some babies will suddenly wake up in the middle of the night, crying and making noises, with extremely nervous expressions. This is mostly because they are too excited or stimulated during the day, and they dream about what they thought about during the day.

In addition, for children with pinworm disease, pinworms will crawl to the anus at night to lay eggs, causing extreme itching of the skin. The children will also become irritable and cry constantly.

Physiological crying: A child's diaper is wet or wrapped too tightly, the child is hungry, thirsty, the indoor temperature is not appropriate, the bedding is too thick, etc., which can make the child feel uncomfortable and cry. In this case, as long as parents eliminate the adverse stimulation in time, the child will soon fall asleep quietly. In addition, some children will cry incessantly when they go to bed at night. If parents can patiently coax them to sleep, the children will fall asleep peacefully soon.

Some children are not adapted to the natural environment (noisy sleeping environment, too bright light, too hot, etc.), which can easily cause a reversal of day and night. The sleeping environment can be adjusted and improved appropriately.

He doesn’t get enough exercise during the day, so he sleeps when his parents are at work and “works” at night when his parents are resting. If you pick up the child and play with him, his crying will stop. At night, he refuses to fall asleep and keeps crying. For this type of children, you can increase their activities appropriately during the day so that the children are tired and can fall asleep peacefully at night. Be careful not to let your child get too excited during activities, otherwise he won’t be able to sleep.

The above are the reasons why babies don’t like to sleep at night. In order to create a good sleeping environment for the baby, in addition to the external environmental requirements, we must also consider whether the baby’s dislike for sleep is due to physical problems. Long-term lack of sleep will form a vicious circle. So I still hope that all parents will pay enough attention to this.
