Why does my 2 month old baby always wake up when sleeping?

A newborn's physical condition is not well developed in all aspects, so there are always some situations that make parents worry. Among them, there is a situation where two-month-old babies always wake up when sleeping. Many parents don’t understand it very well and want to ask what is going on with this situation? The editor will explain it to you below, and I hope that expectant mothers can understand this situation.

1) Calcium deficiency: If your baby wakes up easily during sleep, you must first rule out pathological causes. If your baby is easily startled and has bald spots on the back of his head or night sweats, you should suspect that he is calcium deficient and take him to the hospital for relevant examinations. You can give your baby calcium tablets and cod liver oil as prescribed by the doctor, and also take your baby out to bask in the sun more often.

2) Lack of security: Babies, especially newborns, have just arrived in an unfamiliar environment and have more or less fear of everything around them. Lack of security is also one of the important reasons why babies wake up. For such babies, mothers can let them sleep in a smaller space, such as a cradle or stroller, or they can place bed guards, curtains, cushions and other items around the crib. You should also pay attention to the sleeping environment, such as letting your baby sleep in a fixed bed, using fixed bedding, listening to fixed music, etc.

3) Too quiet: Some families are very worried about their baby’s sleep being disturbed, so they dare not make any noise when their baby is sleeping, and they have to use gestures and pass notes to communicate with each other. This causes the baby to be very sensitive when sleeping and wake up at the slightest noise. The more careful you are, the more likely your baby will be awakened by the slightest sound. Therefore, you should start to pay attention when your baby is born and do not deliberately arrange for your baby to sleep in an absolutely quiet environment.

4) External factors mainly include hunger, abdominal distension, wet urine, calcium deficiency, indoor temperature and humidity, living environment, etc. The baby's internal factors also affect sleep. The baby's brain nerves are not yet mature, and a fixed schedule has not been established physiologically. The adjustment of the biological clock's day and night rhythm depends on the baby's physical maturity. When the baby wakes up, you can pat or touch the baby or feed the baby to make the baby fall asleep again. Parents must find out the reason and ensure that the baby sleeps peacefully.

The above article has given a detailed introduction to why babies wake up from sleep. It talks about calcium deficiency and other aspects, so it is still related to the physical aspect, so parents still need to pay attention to it. It is necessary to read the above content carefully. If your child has such a situation, pay attention to it.
