Patient's question:
Older, sometimes it's very easy for them to be startled when sleeping, especially when the noise is loud. Today in the car, because the driver next to me honked the horn, the sound was very loud. At that time, the baby was sleeping, and the whole body twitched. It's quite heartwarming to see. What kind of help do I need: Does being startled like this have a big impact on the baby? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of the child can be attributed to the following reasons:1. Deficiency of trace elements, such as calcium and zinc.
2. Excessive heat or cold.
3. Indigestion or improper digestion, which may cause stomach issues or overeating, leading to restlessness during deep sleep. It is best to maintain a quiet environment.
Recommendation:
Do not react immediately. Wait for a few minutes, as most children will naturally fall back asleep shortly after waking. If the child continues to cry incessantly, parents should go to comfort them briefly, but avoid turning on the lights, playing with them, picking them up, or shaking them.
