What to do if your baby always wakes up at night

Most families nowadays have only one child, and any abnormality in the child will make the parents very anxious. Logically, children should sleep soundly at night after playing all day, but many children sleep uneasily and wake up easily, which makes parents very worried. So, what should you do if your baby always wakes up at night? Let’s take a closer look below.

If your baby always wakes up at night due to calcium deficiency, calcium should be supplemented in time. You can eat some calcium that is more easily absorbed, such as calcium lactate. You should also get more sun exposure to supplement vitamin D and promote calcium absorption. In addition, feed your baby more calcium-rich foods such as dried shrimps and beans.

If your baby is frightened during the day, he or she will easily wake up at night. At this time, the mother must hold the baby, pat him to comfort him, and say some soothing words.

Sometimes babies cry at night because they are not dressed properly. For example, if the baby wears too thick clothes when sleeping in winter, or the sleeping bag is too restrictive and uncomfortable for the baby, these will cause the baby to wake up from time to time. Therefore, parents should pay close attention to their baby's nighttime dressing and avoid dressing the baby in clothes that are too thick or too restrictive.

If the baby does not eat enough at night, he will easily wake up and cry in the middle of the night. Therefore, although you try to let your child eat less at night, you still need to make sure your baby is full.

If your baby drinks too much porridge or water before going to bed, he will easily wake up and make a fuss. Therefore, try to let your baby urinate more often before going to bed. Frequent urination will prevent the baby from holding urine at night and wetting the bed. Also, give your baby less water before going to bed.

The above is an introduction to what to do if your baby always wakes up at night. I hope it will be helpful to parents. There are many factors that cause children to sleep restlessly at night. In daily life, if you find that your child has a similar situation, you can take these methods to improve it. If necessary, you can go to a regular hospital for diagnosis to avoid causing greater impact on your child.
