Is it possible that the two-month-old baby is crying at night because of calcium deficiency?

Patient's question:

The baby is two months and a few days old. Recently, she has been crying at night for no apparent reason. The night before last, she cried very hard, and no matter how I tried to comfort her, she wouldn't stop. Finally, she fell asleep, but she slept for a long time afterward. However, she tends to cry at night and doesn't sleep well during the day. Her naps are also short. I wonder if it's because she's getting older and doesn't want to nap during the day or something else. People online say that it might be due to calcium deficiency, causing her to cry. But before, she would stop crying if I comforted her, but now she cries even more, and it's hard to comfort her. She cries with her eyes squinted, as if she's sleepy. When I hold her and keep her squinting, she cries for a few seconds and then stops. I don't know what to do. Is it because she's deficient in calcium?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, the baby has poor sleep and tends to cry a lot, which is mainly considered to be caused by calcium deficiency. Given the baby's current condition, you can take some vitamin D drops, consume some liquid calcium particles, and get more sun exposure. The above suggestions are for the question "The baby is two months and a few days old and has been crying a lot at night recently for no apparent reason." It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
