My baby is old and goes to sleep at around one o'clock in the morning.

Patient's question:

Taking a nap until a little after 1 o'clock has already started tossing and turning, unable to sleep soundly. Holding him is also useless, he can't cry, and he can toss around for a long time. He can still eat dinner well, and he plays well normally. However, his height is much larger than that of a normal child, and he is also overweight.
Past treatment history and effectiveness: At 7 months, he would cry at night during naps. We took him to the women and children's hospital, where they checked for trace elements and found he was not deficient in calcium. Many doctors prescribed vitamin D3 drops, one time a day. He took 3 bottles and it was fine, so we stopped. But now it has started again. I bought another bottle and have taken it for 4 days, but there is no improvement at all. What kind of assistance can you provide: Well, what do you think, should we focus on eating or what? Can you give us some advice? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the child may have a deficiency in certain trace elements or neurological issues. If there is a lack of iron, there may be some pica, and a deficiency in certain trace elements may cause restlessness during naps. It requires some attention.
Advice: I suggest you take the baby to the hospital to check for trace elements to see if there is any deficiency. If there is none, you can go to the neurology department for a check-up and treatment for the specific condition. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Doctor's inquiry: Is the child usually active? Could it be ADHD?
