Question
My baby is 38 days old and doesn’t sleep after breastfeeding. They often wake up easily and cry when not fed. They seem more comfortable while feeding, but won’t cry, and they whine throughout the day, with restless sleep. Could this be due to calcium deficiency?
Answer
Based on the symptoms you’ve described, a 38-day-old baby not sleeping after breastfeeding and waking up easily might be a normal physiological phenomenon since newborns have short sleep cycles. It is recommended to breastfeed on demand. At the same time, to ensure the healthy growth of your baby, it is important to ensure that your baby receives adequate nutrition and a quiet, comfortable sleeping environment.
