Question
Is medical treatment necessary for a baby’s restless sleep? How long will it take to see improvement after treatment? Please provide assistance.
Answer
Unrestful sleep in babies may be caused by calcium deficiency, and supplementing with calcium is usually effective. Additionally, it could also be a sign of vitamin deficiency, and appropriate vitamin supplementation may help alleviate symptoms. Some babies may become restless when put down because they are accustomed to being held, leading to crying due to discomfort. Newborns require a warm environment, and if the baby feels cold, it may also cause restless sleep. It is recommended that parents observe their baby’s sleep habits and consult a doctor when necessary to determine the most suitable treatment plan.
