Patient's question:
The child is 5 and a half years old, male, and recently has been napping until around 5 a.m. He starts to whine and cry, and in the morning when asked, he says he doesn't know, and when asked if he feels uncomfortable, he says he doesn't. What's going on? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons why babies cry at night, the most common being the need to urinate or defecate, stomach bloating or discomfort, or feeling too hot or too cold, or having nightmares, etc. It is recommended to pay attention to good living habits during the day, take a bath before bed, go to the bathroom, avoid excessive excitement, and not overbundle with clothes and bedding. Please observe more carefully. The above suggestions are for the question "Why does my 5.5-year-old son wake up crying around 5 a.m. recently?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
