Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Good 2 days' previous treatment situation and effect: Napped while being held during the day, and also at night. What kind of assistance is needed: Do you need calcium supplements? How long should a 2-month-old baby sleep for the best result? What should I do if the baby doesn't nap during the day and sleeps poorly at night....
Doctor's answer:
For 2-month-old infants and toddlers, there are many reasons why a baby may not sleep, and it is not just due to calcium deficiency. The cause is often a decrease in blood calcium, which leads to increased excitability of the brain and the vegetative nervous system, causing the baby to be restless at night. The baby needs to digest calcium and vitamin D. If there is a calcium deficiency, the fontanelles of the baby may not close properly. If there is a zinc deficiency, the corners of the mouth are often prone to ulcers.Playing too excitedly before deep sleep, taking naps on time, and allowing the baby to calm down 0.5 to 1 hour before falling asleep can help. Indigestion, constipation, stomach upset, or eating too much at night can also cause restless deep sleep. If the baby wakes up at night because they need to urinate, I think it would be a good idea to use a diaper to keep the environment as quiet as possible.
Advice: Personally, I recommend not reacting immediately when the baby cries. Wait a few minutes, as most children who wake up at night will naturally fall back asleep within a few minutes. If the baby continues to cry, parents should go to comfort them for a short while, but without turning on the light, and use soothing methods to help them fall asleep. Generally, if the baby is in a drowsy state, they will gradually fall asleep.
I hope my explanation can bring you some relief. Wishing your baby good health.
