Patient's question:
Every night when taking a nap, I wake up many times and it's easy to be startled. About the past treatment and its effects: I went to the hospital, and the doctor said it might be due to calcium deficiency. What kind of help do you need: What should I do if your baby doesn't sleep well?Doctor's answer:
After reading your description, I have a basic understanding of the situation.1. The child is lacking calcium.
2. If the child is overly excited before bed, it can also lead to restless sleep.
1. Avoid letting the child get too excited before bed. At the very least, avoid excessive excitement one hour before bed, such as crying hard or laughing loudly.
2. If there are some symptoms of calcium deficiency, taking fish oil and calcium supplements can help replenish calcium. If breastfeeding, the mother should also supplement calcium to ensure the baby can better absorb more calcium. Generally, it may take about a week to see effects.
The above suggestions are for the issue of "Baby not sleeping well at night at nine months." I hope this helps. Wishing you good health!
