Patient's question:
My baby is almost six months old. During this period, it's difficult for her to fall asleep at night when taking naps, she cries and doesn't listen. The crying is heart-wrenching and hard to soothe. She often wakes up at night and cries easily, usually falling asleep only after crying herself to sleep. During the day, she is very energetic and shows no signs of discomfort. I need help from a doctor. Waiting for an online response.Doctor's answer:
If the baby is crying and restless, it could be either because they haven't eaten enough or because they are lacking vitamin D. A child of this age can digest 400 units of vitamin D daily, and if they are lacking, they may digest more. There are many reasons why a baby might have difficulty falling asleep and cry during naps at night, such as intestinal parasites, calcium deficiency, indigestion, and so on. It is recommended to have a systematic and thorough check-up at the hospital to identify the cause and address it promptly. The above advice is for the question "My baby is six months and a few days old and has been having difficulty falling asleep and crying during naps at night." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
