Two-year-old baby crying at night

The main reasons why babies always cry at night are poor sleeping environment, being too excited before going to bed, physical discomfort, too thick clothes, etc., or the baby's internal factors may also affect sleep, and the brain nerves are not yet mature. The baby has not yet established a fixed schedule physiologically. The adjustment of the baby's biological clock's day and night rhythm depends on the baby's physiological maturity.

What should I do if my two-year-old baby always cries at night?

1. Sucking. It is okay to let your baby suck on a pacifier, which can have a soothing effect, but the pacifier must be sterilized to prevent diseases from entering the body through the mouth.

2. Massage. Patting and massaging can help calm your baby. Try having your baby sit upright on your shoulder and patting his or her back.

3. Music. You can play some music with soft, beautiful melody and slow rhythm for your baby, which can help your baby calm down and promote sleep. But be careful not to turn the volume too loud.

How to prevent your baby from crying at night

1. Make sure to go to bed on time. Children are not like adults. They do not feel tired. The whole family should try to go to bed at the same time. Even if parents need to stay up late, they should try to keep it low. Do not force the children to sleep while watching TV or something. This will make the children's minds restless, which is not conducive to sleep.

2. Do not turn on the lights. Some parents install wall lights in the corners to prevent their children from getting up at night and leave them on all night. This is particularly bad and will affect the children's nerves and naturally affect their sleep.

3. Do not let your baby engage in strenuous activities or play too excitedly before going to bed. He will be overly excited and nervous before falling asleep, and his brain will still be in an excited state after falling asleep, which can easily lead to restless sleep.

Here I introduce to you the reasons why babies always cry at night and the solutions. Babies are young and express their emotions differently, so mothers should learn to observe their babies carefully. If you really don’t understand, you can consult a pediatrician to find the problem early and treat it in time.
