What is the reason why an eight-month-old baby cannot sleep well?

For expectant fathers and mothers, the baby's restless sleep has been a problem that has troubled them for a long time. Parents feel distressed when they see their baby crying constantly due to lack of sleep. In fact, there are many reasons why babies cannot sleep well at night. What is the reason why eight-month-old babies cannot sleep well? Let’s learn and understand it together today.

What is the reason why an eight-month-old baby cannot sleep well? The reasons that cause babies to have poor sleep at night are as follows: 1. Sometimes babies eat too much, causing abdominal discomfort; or they do not eat enough and feel hungry, and they will cry and not sleep. If this is the reason, you should continue to explore the rules to ensure that the baby eats the right amount and does not get too full or too hungry. 2. If the diaper is wet and not changed in time, or the clothes are too tight or the quilt is too thick, making the baby feel uncomfortable, he will also express his "protest" by crying and refusing to sleep. Therefore, you should try to let your baby wear loose and soft clothes to sleep, and the quilt should be of appropriate thickness. Diapers should be changed promptly if they are wet. 3. Check whether the baby has been bitten by mosquitoes or has eczema, as this will cause unbearable itching of the skin, especially at night when the baby is quiet. Babies cannot express themselves and can only attract their parents' attention by crying and refusing to sleep. 4. Check your baby’s trace elements. Calcium deficiency may also cause such symptoms. 5. Abdominal pain caused by a cold abdomen may also lead to poor sleep. Mothers should pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm, give the baby more warm water, and you can let the baby wear a small belly band. 6. Is the air in the room too dry, causing discomfort to the baby's upper respiratory tract? It is recommended to give the baby more water. It is best to use a humidifier in the room or place a few basins of water in the room to increase the humidity in the room. 7. If the baby is frightened, you can take some Xiaoer Jingfeng San orally. When your baby cries and refuses to sleep, you should never fail to find out the reason and just try to force him to sleep by holding him, patting him, walking around and coaxing him. If you do this frequently, he will develop bad sleeping habits. Moreover, since doing so does not eliminate the root cause that affects the baby's sleep and the baby cannot get a good rest, it will affect the baby's health in the long run, so a neurological development test can be done on the baby.

Through the above explanation, I believe that expectant fathers and mothers have a general understanding of why eight-month-old babies are restless when sleeping? What should I do if my baby is restless when sleeping? As a new father or mother, you should pay attention to cultivating good sleeping habits for your baby and ensure that your baby has a high-quality sleep, so that the baby's growth and development can be guaranteed. I wish you and your baby good health!
