Question

The baby girl who is just over a month old has been particularly prone to waking up during sleep and crying for the past two days, and she can’t sleep for long during the day. How should I adjust this situation?

Answer

Based on the situation you described, the main consideration is likely due to a calcium deficiency, or it could also be caused by being startled. Normally, you should feed the baby every two to three hours, but not too frequently as it may lead to indigestion. It is recommended to pay attention to taking fish liver oil to promote calcium absorption. This is mainly because the baby is easily startled when sleeping. It is suggested that you take your baby to the hospital for a check-up.
