Questions

A parent asks about a seven-month-old baby who often sweats and occasionally wakes up crying during sleep, inquiring whether the baby might be deficient in calcium and how to supplement it, as well as which brand of calcium tablets is preferable.

Answers

It is recommended to provide the baby with calcium supplementation while also taking cod liver oil to aid in calcium absorption. On sunny days, take the baby outdoors for more outdoor activities, as sunlight helps with calcium absorption. Consider giving calcium tablets or bone-strengthening powder. For a seven-month-old baby, excessive sweating and crying may be symptoms of calcium deficiency, so attention should be paid to calcium intake and supplementation.
