What is the reason why the baby sleeps lightly?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor, could you please tell me why my baby has been sleeping very lightly lately and waking up frequently?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's a pleasure to explain this to you. If a child is crying or having trouble sleeping, it's important to identify the cause and observe if there is redness or swelling around the anus, or if there are symptoms like bad breath or drooling. The cause may be an oral infection, such as thrush or stomatitis. Sometimes parasites can also cause similar symptoms. If there are no such signs, it may be due to calcium deficiency. Calcium deficiency can cause a baby to wake up suddenly, and you can try holding the baby and letting them bask in the sun.
