Question
What are the reasons for a newborn’s sudden movements?
Answer
Night terrors may be caused by calcium deficiency, usually manifesting as sudden waking up at night crying or showing fear. A blood trace element test can be conducted, following the principle of ‘supplement what is lacking,’ and consuming foods high in calcium such as fish and bone broth. If a newborn is affected by diseases, mothers should take their child to a doctor for timely medical treatment and avoid self-medication to alleviate symptoms. Parents should do their best to help their child receive timely treatment and pay attention to the child’s condition.
