Patient's question:
The full-term baby doesn't sleep well during naps! It's all light sleep! Their eyes keep fluttering open and closed! They wake up at the slightest noise! Even a slight tremor in their hand wakes them up! They keep struggling during the day and night! They shake every few minutes! The fontanelle is 33, could it be calcium deficiency? The doctor only recommended fish oil supplements, and they are now being fed exclusively with formula milk! Should I give the baby calcium supplements? It's been like this for two weeks!Doctor's answer:
Newborns generally start taking vitamin A and D drops to enhance calcium metabolism from half a month old. According to your description, if you have been supplementing with fish oil, you can take the baby to the hospital for a bone density test. If there is a calcium deficiency, you can take calcium supplements on the basis of vitamin A and D. This is the advice for the question "Newborn baby doesn't sleep well during naps! It's all light sleep," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
