Question
A two-month-old baby often cries at night, sometimes for three hours before falling asleep, and needs to be shaken to do so. Otherwise, they cannot sleep peacefully. Could this be related to gas around the umbilical cord or leftover abdominal problems?
Answer
A baby’s nighttime crying and difficulty falling asleep may be a sign of calcium deficiency. It is generally recommended that babies start vitamin D supplementation two weeks after birth to prevent calcium deficiency. It is suggested to start vitamin D supplementation early, taking one fish oil capsule daily. Additionally, you can add an appropriate amount of calcium supplements such as Calcidiol, Calcium Gluconate, or Lactate Calcium. Strengthening care and wishing the baby health. I hope these suggestions can help you. Wishing you health!
