Question
My baby cries at night and needs night milk. Is this normal?
Answer
A baby’s crying at night could be due to upper respiratory infections causing nasal congestion and runny nose, along with symptoms like hiccups. Blood tests show a viral infection. It is recommended to let the baby rest more, drink plenty of water, consume fresh vegetables and fruits, and gently rub the baby’s abdomen twice a day to promote gastrointestinal motility. You can also give the baby digestive probiotics to regulate intestinal function and use some cooling and detoxifying medications to alleviate symptoms. I hope these suggestions can help your baby recover soon.
