Question
What’s Causing the Baby’s Constant Crying?
Answer
The constant crying of the baby might be a new symptom following the recovery from recent diarrhea, manifesting as crying during both day and night, and also when encountering strangers. The parents mentioned that they have tried calcium supplementation but there has been no significant improvement, suspecting it might be due to a scare. It is advised for parents to pay attention to the feeding condition of the child and continue to supplement with calcium and cod liver oil for at least two weeks. During sleep, it is important to maintain a quiet environment, avoid startling the child, and let the baby wake up naturally without waking them up too early. The bedroom should avoid keeping the lights on all night to prevent affecting the baby’s sleep rhythm and growth development.
