Why does my one and a half year old baby toss and turn when sleeping at night?

It is quite common for babies to turn over in their sleep. Generally, it is caused by physiological conditions, but there are also some special factors that can cause babies to turn over in their sleep. This not only affects the baby's normal sleep, but also brings troubles to parents. So why does a one and a half year old baby toss and turn in his sleep? Now let's analyze it in detail.

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 are 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.

Too hot or too cold

Too dry or with nasal mucus. Playing too excitedly before sleeping. Go to bed on time: 0.5 to 1 hour before the baby goes to sleep, the baby should be calmed down. Don’t play too excitedly before sleeping, and don’t tease the baby too much. 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.

The above are some of the factors that cause babies to turn over easily during sleep. I hope our mothers can correctly understand this and correctly solve the causes of babies turning over during sleep. Especially when the child is one and a half years old, this is also the stage of physical development. We hope that these things will not affect the child’s health.
