Question

What should be done if a baby is restless at night and wakes up frequently?

Answer

There may be several reasons why a baby is restless at night, including calcium deficiency, excessive heat or cold, and indigestion. Firstly, it’s important to check for calcium and trace element deficiencies and supplement if necessary. Secondly, ensure that the baby’s sleeping environment is at a comfortable temperature, avoiding both overheating and excessive cold. Additionally, if the baby shows signs of indigestion, consider adjusting the diet or considering digestive medications. If these methods do not improve the situation, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor for more accurate diagnosis and treatment advice.
