The baby always stretches very frequently

Many babies will stretch as they grow, and some will kick their legs. In fact, these phenomena all represent that the baby's bones are growing. Stretching and kicking can promote bone growth. At this time, mothers should pay attention to giving the baby more nutrition, eating some calcium and vitamin supplements, to ensure the energy needed by the baby during the growth process. So why do babies stretch frequently?

Old people say that children grow fast if they stretch hard! When the baby is stretching hard, you can push him from top to bottom and then say: grow, grow, grow. After 5 or 6 times, the baby will feel more comfortable. When the baby's body itches, he will also try hard because of his fast metabolism. It is best to bathe him every day. If your baby eats formula, he must be fed every 3 hours. If he is hungry, give him less water. Then the baby's mother should hold the baby with her left hand when the baby cries and let the baby's head rest on the mother's left chest. This way the baby can hear his most familiar heartbeat (because the baby is always listening to the mother's heartbeat in the mother's belly). So the baby will feel safe when listening to the mother's heartbeat of about 70 beats per minute! If the baby is still making trouble, the mother should hold the baby and hum a song to him so that the baby can hear the most familiar sound. In fact, there is no need to worry that the baby will become dependent on the mother and must be held every day. It's okay to put the baby down after he/she falls asleep.

Observe carefully to see if the baby looks startled when stretching. If the baby cannot stretch for one or two minutes, it means the baby is afraid. It is probably due to calcium deficiency. If the baby has a hoarse throat, it will be cured by drinking water. Don’t worry, as long as the baby drinks milk and poops normally.

Children will have alternating deep and light sleep during sleep. In light sleep, they will often toss and turn, turn, twist, make noises, etc. In addition, older children may have sleep problems due to teething and excitement before going to bed during the day. Most of them are normal and not considered pathological. If there are no other abnormalities, you can observe
