Question
Could a baby’s lack of appetite and easy wakefulness be related to poor calcium supplementation or discomfort from fever?
Answer
A baby’s restless sleep might be due to calcium deficiency, but babies usually have shallow sleep and are easily awakened by sounds. It is suggested to have the baby checked for trace elements and consider whether the calcium supplementation method needs adjustment or if treatment for discomfort from fever is necessary. Moreover, consuming foods rich in calcium, supplementing cod liver oil, and getting appropriate sunlight exposure can all help improve these symptoms.
