Patient's question:
The child is 54 days old. Since last night, they haven't slept much at all. I'm doing mixed feeding, and the milk isn't good. A while ago, they would cry when they touched the nipple, but starting yesterday afternoon, they've completely refused to eat, even with formula, and demand to be fed. They only sleep for a few minutes at a time at night, constantly scratching their face, and their little hands are swinging back and forth. It feels like they're very tired but can't sleep soundly. This morning, they've been held all the time to sleep. What's going on? I'm so worried!Doctor's answer:
This situation may be caused by indigestion, abdominal discomfort, or calcium deficiency, leading to poor deep sleep. It is recommended that you let the baby drink plenty of water in adequate amounts, feed them little and often, pay attention to keeping their abdomen warm, and get more sun exposure. Carefully observe and, if necessary, seek medical attention. The above advice is for the question "Why doesn't my 54-day-old baby sleep well at night and not eat milk?" and is hoped to be helpful. Wishing you good health!
