Question
My child is 15 days old, and they have been crying a lot recently. They wake up after just a short nap and cry very loudly, sometimes even jumping in fear. I want to understand what’s going on?
Answer
When the child experiences this again, it may indicate that they are feeling uncomfortable. Infants often express discomfort through crying. There can be several common reasons why they may not be able to sleep soundly, including stomach discomfort, calcium deficiency, overheating due to excessive warmth during sleep, a lack of security, or having been frightened.
