Patient's question:
The baby has congenital heart disease and is often startled at night. Is it related to the disease? Previous diagnosis and treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment, the doctor said follow-up.Doctor's answer:
The nervous system development is not yet very mature. During sleep, it is mainly light sleep. There may be partial movements and crying phenomena of the torso and limbs. This is a normal physiological phenomenon that occurs during the sleep cycle. Do not mistake this phenomenon for the child not sleeping well or not sleeping soundly. If the baby cries out, gently patting the baby can help them fall asleep without picking them up and waking them. Even more so, do not develop the bad habit of feeding the baby every time they cry. The child cannot speak, but they do have "thoughts." What the mother says can have a comforting effect on them. Babies who are calcium-deficient may also be affected by sleep. It is important to supplement fish oil in a timely manner.
