What is the reason why children keep turning over while sleeping?

Patient's question:

Stimulating or unpleasant sounds will scare the baby. What can be done if the baby doesn't sleep soundly?

Doctor's answer:

Attention should be paid to the baby's sleep condition, as it may indicate insufficient sleep. Pay attention to whether the baby is sleeping on their stomach, as this is often a self-protective behavior at this age (the child was in this position in the mother's womb, where the body's most vulnerable parts are protected, making sleep safer, easier to fall asleep, and reducing crying). However, it is important to note that calcium or vitamin D deficiency can often lead to poor sleep in babies. It is recommended to supplement calcium (starting two months postpartum) and vitamin D (starting three to four weeks postpartum). At the same time, attention should be paid to adverse factors such as suffocation and poor heat dissipation. It is recommended that parents promptly implement the baby's sleep position. Correction is sufficient.
