What is the situation of a two-month-old baby having less sleep?

In the eyes of parents, the most important thing is their children. Every cry or laugh of their children can touch every nerve of theirs. Especially when the baby is young, it makes people worry endlessly. Some babies sleep less when they are more than two months old, which makes their parents very worried. So what happens when a two-month-old baby sleeps less? What causes a two-month-old baby to sleep less? The main factors can be divided into the following:

Generally, a 2-month-old baby sleeps about 16-18 hours a day, but the sleep time of each baby varies from person to person. The baby's sleep process is cyclical. In each sleep cycle, there are two forms of deep sleep and light sleep. When the baby enters the light sleep stage, he may show some sleep behaviors such as moving eyes, head, limbs and making sounds. At this time, parents should not rush to disturb the baby, but pat the baby appropriately and the baby may continue to sleep. If your baby does not sleep well and does not sleep well, parents can analyze the reasons so as to correct them in time. Generally, there are the following reasons:

(1) Normal situation: If the baby jumps and jumps while asleep but is sure not to wake up, and the baby's growth and development are normal, then this is a normal phenomenon and there is no need to worry too much. This is because the baby's central nervous system is highly excitable and the cerebral cortex is not fully developed. It is also related to the baby's sleep cycle, which causes shallow sleep.

(2) Calcium deficiency: Babies often suffer from baldness on the back of their heads, excessive sweating, and irritability. You can go to the hospital for a blood calcium test to confirm the diagnosis, or you can take regular calcium supplements to prevent rickets.

(3) Pathological factors: This should be given enough attention. Is the baby sick? For example: fever, eczema, intestinal cramps, rickets, oral ulcers, pinworm infection, etc. will affect the baby's sleep and even cause crying. Please take your baby to see a doctor in time.

(4) Irregular life: The baby sleeps less during the day, is hungry, cold, hot, frightened, eats too much before bedtime, plays too excitedly during the day, does strenuous physical exercise before bedtime, etc. The baby develops the habit of being held as soon as he cries and sleeping in the arms, etc., which will affect the baby's sleep. Therefore, parents should create a comfortable, quiet, well-fed sleeping environment for their baby that avoids strong light stimulation, and the baby's sleeping condition should be improved. Since babies' sleep length varies from person to person, it is not appropriate to make rigid regulations. Sleep time is for reference only. As long as you try your best to ensure that your baby gets enough sleep, he will be energetic during the day, in a good mood, have a good appetite, grow and develop normally, and sleep soundly. It is normal even if his daily sleep time is less than the average.
