Question
A 24-day-old baby has been occasionally waking up suddenly at night, crying out loud, and can only stop if held and walked around. Additionally, the baby, who previously accepted various complementary foods, has now lost interest in many of them.
Answer
The child may be crying out of fear or excessive scolding during the night. As for the issue with complementary foods, it could be due to the baby overeating at a previous meal or the parent not having a fixed standard for the baby’s food intake. As long as the baby is in good spirits and their height and weight are increasing at a normal rate, there is no need to worry excessively about the baby’s food intake.
