Key points for caring for babies who have restless sleep

Now people's living standards have improved, and they are more concerned about the life and growth of their babies. They all hope that their babies can have a healthy and happy growth process. However, babies may have some symptoms during the growth process, such as restless sleep. This may be a bad situation and requires careful care from family members. So what are the key points for nursing babies who are restless in sleep?

We know that babies basically sleep a lot in the first few months, so we must pay close attention to the baby's sleep quality, which is very critical. If your baby is restless while sleeping, it may be because he is sick or not sleeping well, etc. The following is a detailed introduction to the key points of nursing for your baby who is restless while sleeping:

1. Don’t wake your baby completely

When a 4-6 month old baby cries, do not respond immediately. Wait for a few minutes, because most babies will fall asleep again naturally after a few minutes of waking up. If the baby keeps crying, parents should go over to comfort him, but should not play with, pick him up or shake him. If the baby's crying gets worse, wait two minutes and check again, and consider whether he is hungry, has urinated, has a fever, or has any other signs of illness.

2. Keep your nasal cavity clear

During the first few months of life, your baby's nasal passages must be open so that he or she can breathe properly. After that, they can also breathe through their mouth if their nose is blocked. Newborns are particularly prone to irritability if they have a stuffy nose. If this happens, first clear the air and then help your baby clear the obstruction in the nasal passage.

3. Choose comfortable pajamas

After changing your baby into pure cotton clothes, your baby will sleep better. Some babies may develop a rash in addition to irritability when they are allergic to new clothes, laundry detergent or fabric softener.

4. Let your baby adapt to the environment

Some babies cannot adapt to the natural environment and have their day and night reversed. He sleeps when his parents work during the day, and "works" when his parents rest at night. If you pick up the baby and play with him, the crying will stop. For this type of baby, you can use some sedatives to adjust the rest and sleep time, and ask a child health doctor for guidance if necessary.

5. Treat diseases

Certain diseases can also affect the baby's sleep at night. Therefore, we must start with the primary disease and actively prevent and treat it.

Babies with rickets are often restless at night. For babies with pinworms, pinworms will crawl to the anus and lay eggs at night, causing extreme itching of the skin. The babies will also be restless and cry constantly.

The above are the key points of care for babies who have restless sleep that we have summarized for everyone. I hope that friends who have babies will study them carefully so that the baby can have a comfortable environment for growth. At the same time, it can also make people feel more at ease. The baby’s body is also very fragile and needs careful care and attention just like the elderly. I hope everyone can have a happy family.
