Patient's question:
Main symptoms over the past eleven days: In the last two days, the child has been sleeping poorly both day and night. They usually fall asleep within ten minutes after switching from breast milk to a diaper, and no matter how much they are called, they don't wake up. Then, if their head is raised and their back is gently patted twice, they are put to bed for a nap. However, recently, they have been feeling restless during sleep many times. Just a few minutes after falling asleep, their eyes flutter slightly, their head shakes, and a "gagging" sound can be heard in their trachea or throat. A short while later, their eyes open, and sometimes they cry, while at other times they just lie in bed shaking slightly. What could be the reason for this? Besides the frequent bowel movements in the past day, they have had four in the past hour. Onset time: Examination results: What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
1. Lack of trace elements, reduced blood calcium leads to increased excitability of the brain and vegetative nervous system, causing the baby to sleep restlessly at night. It is necessary to digest calcium and vitamin D.2. Too hot, too cold.
3. Accumulated food, poor digestion, stomach upset, or overeating at night can also lead to deep sleep disturbances. It is recommended that solid foods such as porridge or noodles should be fed at least two to three hours before bedtime, and a little milk should be drunk again before bed.
4. If the baby cries, do not respond immediately. Wait a few minutes, because most children who wake up at night will naturally fall back asleep within a few minutes.
