Patient's question:
A one-month-old baby doesn't sleep well, doesn't understand and doesn't want to take naps either. They need to be held to sleep all day, but they wake up easily. At night, they also only sleep for an hour before waking up. I should say that newborns are supposed to sleep for ten hours or more, right?Doctor's answer:
If the baby sleeps restlessly and is easily startled, the reason is likely due to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a systematic and thorough examination to identify the cause and address it promptly. If it is indeed a calcium deficiency, oral calcium gluconate solution and fish oil drops can be administered.After the baby has been treated, they may not enjoy napping during the day, but this is not a disease and there is no need to worry too much.
This is the advice for the question "What should I do if my one-month-old baby doesn't sleep well?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
