Patient's question:
Hello expert! Why does my 2-year-old child's sleep quality worsen after taking health supplement pills? Before taking them, they could still sleep through the night in two stages, but after taking them for a few days (one pill per day), they now need to wake up four to five times to sleep until the next morning. When they were 1.5 years old, they took the same health supplement pills, and the same issue occurred, after which they stopped taking them. Is this situation normal? What is the cause of it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, some children sleep a lot during the day and are full of energy at night. When parents are tired and ignore them, the children will cry. Before putting the baby to bed, do not overfeed or underfeed them to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort or hunger affecting sleep. Also, do not overstimulate the child, keeping them emotionally calm before bed to prevent excessive excitement. After getting into bed, do not give toys to the child to avoid them playing too much and refusing to sleep.
