What should I do if my two-month-old baby is restless when sleeping?

Every child is the most precious treasure of his or her parents. When something happens to the child, the parents will often feel more uncomfortable than if they were sick themselves. Babies are the most difficult to take care of when they are young, especially babies over two months old. Their sleep and other things can be a real worry. If the baby cannot sleep well, the mother will be more worried. What should I do if my two-month-old baby is restless when sleeping? Let’s find out together.

For some babies who have trouble sleeping, doctors suggest that parents can try kneading the Xiaotianxin acupoint (which is what we often call the thenar intersection, at the base of the palm, at the intersection of the thenar and hypothenar), or kneading the Baihui acupoint (on the head, located at the midpoint of the tips of the two ears). These two acupoints can calm the mind.

If poor sleep is caused by calcium deficiency, in addition to kneading the Xiaotianxin and Baihui points, you should also take appropriate calcium supplements, such as taking calcium gluconate and calcium carbonate. Generally, calcium carbonate is best, followed by milk calcium, and calcium gluconate is the worst. At the same time, you can take some cod liver oil and pay more attention to the absorption of calcium in your diet.

For babies who are calcium deficient, it is actually due to the lack of outdoor exercise. Getting more sun exposure can help the body synthesize calcium. Therefore, when the weather is good, parents must take their babies to do more outdoor activities to help them supplement calcium. They should not always keep their children in the house for fear that they might bump into something.

The above are the solutions to the problem of a two-month-old baby sleeping restlessly. In addition, you need to consider many aspects: whether the baby is not full; whether he has urinated; the thickness of the quilt, whether it is too heavy or hot or cold; whether he sleeps too much during the day; whether the clothes are comfortable; finally, after all factors have been ruled out, consider whether the baby is sick or unwell.
