Question
A baby who is nine months old tends to cry and fuss during nap time, no matter how much soothing is done. What should I do?
Answer
Lack of calcium is one of the main reasons for the baby’s restless sleep during naps, a concern most parents consider. Suggestion: Insufficient calcium or low blood calcium levels can increase the excitability of the baby’s autonomic nervous system, leading to night waking, night terrors, or restlessness at night. The solution is to supplement the baby with calcium and vitamin D, and to increase outdoor sun exposure. These are the suggestions for the issue of “the baby cries during nap time and only wants to sleep after eating milk.” I hope this helps you, and wish you health!
