Question
Why is a 25-day-old newborn crying and unable to sleep at night?
Answer
The reasons for a 25-day-old newborn’s continuous crying and sleeplessness at night may include a cold, stomachache, or calcium deficiency. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a blood calcium test to determine if there is a calcium deficiency. If diagnosed with calcium deficiency, oral calcium gluconate can be taken with vitamin D to promote calcium absorption. If the situation does not improve, it is advisable to take the child to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
