Patient's question:
Main symptoms in the last eleven days: In the past two days, the child has been sleeping poorly both day and night. They usually fall asleep within ten minutes after switching from breastfeeding to a diaper, no matter how much they are called. Then, by lifting their head and patting their back twice, they are put to bed for a nap. However, recently, they have often felt like they are not sleeping soundly. Just a few minutes after falling asleep, their eyes flutter slightly, their head shakes, and a "gagging" sound can be heard in their trachea or throat. A short while later, their eyes open, and sometimes they cry, while other times they just lie in bed shaking slightly. What could be the reason for this? Besides the frequent bowel movements in the past day (four in the past hour), the onset time: Test results: What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
1. Lack of trace elements, reduced blood calcium leads to increased excitability of the brain and vegetative nervous system, causing the baby to sleep poorly at night. It is necessary to digest calcium and vitamin D.2. Too hot, too cold.
3. Accumulated food, poor digestion, stomach upset, or overeating at night can also lead to deep sleep disturbances. It is recommended that solid foods such as porridge or noodles should be fed at least two to three hours before bedtime, and a little milk should be given again before sleep.
4. If the baby cries, do not respond immediately. Wait a few minutes, because most children who wake up at night will naturally fall back asleep within a few minutes.
