Question
Why might a three-month-old baby experience irregular nighttime sleep? Please seek expert guidance.
Answer
- Deficiencies in trace minerals, such as a decrease in blood calcium, may increase the excitability of the brain and vegetative nervous system, leading to irregular nighttime sleep in infants. It is necessary to supplement calcium and vitamin D.
- Environmental temperatures that are too hot or too cold.
- Indigestion, heat symptoms, or overeating at night may also cause sleep disturbances.
- When a baby cries, do not immediately respond; wait a few minutes, as many children will naturally fall back asleep after a few minutes of waking up at night. It is recommended to supplement calcium carbonate after conducting relevant checks, along with the use of cod liver oil and infant Icodextrin, and sunbathing.
