Question
How to handle a baby who keeps waking up and may have a calcium deficiency?
Answer
Start by improving the baby’s sleep habits, such as avoiding late-night meals or nighttime milk. Observe if the baby is lacking in trace elements, particularly calcium and zinc. If a deficiency is confirmed, promptly supplement the necessary nutrients. Additionally, try adjusting the baby’s diet to include calcium-rich foods such as dairy products, legumes, and green leafy vegetables. Also, maintain moderate outdoor activities to help the baby absorb vitamin D, which promotes calcium absorption. If the baby’s condition does not improve, it is advisable to take the child to see a doctor for professional diagnosis and treatment.
