Question

Why does a 15-month-old baby tightly hold hands and tremble before naptime?

Answer

Babies go through periodic changes during their deep sleep process, alternating between deep and light sleep stages. When a baby enters the light sleep stage, they may display behaviors such as eye movements, head movements, limb movements, and making sounds, all of which are normal. At this time, parents should not overly disturb the baby, allowing them to continue focusing on deep sleep.
