What should I do if my baby has trouble falling asleep at night and keeps crying?

The baby has difficulty falling asleep, we must first make sure that the child is unwell, and in addition, we must see if the baby sleeps too much during the day and does not want to sleep now, which needs to be adjusted slowly.

Hold and coax him, so that the baby is more secure and will fall asleep more easily.

Some children are like this, they sleep for a long time during the day, and they just don't sleep at night, so they can only coax him and try not to let him sleep too long during the day.

The baby has difficulty falling asleep at night, crying is not the child's discomfort, try to take the child to the hospital for a check-up, and then check the trace elements to see if the child is deficient in calcium, and then judge that the child has a problem.

If the baby is crying and sleeping, the following problems need to be considered:

1. Gastrointestinal dysfunction, after gastrointestinal dysfunction, there will be paroxysmal intestinal peristalsis, there will be crying, some children will hum and chirp, need to massage the baby's abdomen, improve gastrointestinal function, and at the same time adopt a small number of multiple feeding methods in feeding, and oral intestinal microecological preparations can be taken to improve the intestinal microecological environment.

Second, vitamin or trace element deficiency, of which vitamin D deficiency is the most common, such a baby can go to the hospital for trace element examination, if there is a deficiency of trace elements need to be given additional supplements, and at the same time need to be routinely supplemented with vitamin D, because the vitamin D in our diet is not enough to maintain the physiological needs of children, especially children within two years old, more need to be routinely supplemented, if it is a child in the northern region, children within three years old also need to be supplemented.

First of all, see if you are hungry, generally the baby crying is also related to the heat, do not dress him too much, in one is not to let the baby sleep too long during the day, otherwise he will not be sleepy at night.

Not sleeping for a long time will seriously affect the baby's development, reduce resistance, affect brain thinking, affect physical and mental health, etc., and are extremely unfavorable to the baby's development, so mothers should pay attention to cultivating good sleep habits for their children. From the perspective of the baby's age, it is generally because the baby has urine and urine, or the baby is hungry, which will cause the baby to cry and not sleep.

For several months, I didn't observe whether the baby had colic or teething. These reasons are very uncomfortable for the baby. It's better to see a doctor. After all, it's the right medicine.

The baby always cries when he sleeps, and it is not easy to fall asleep, indicating that the baby may be uncomfortable, and the baby three months ago is at most indigestion and uncomfortable stomach, go to the hospital to see, and take some medicine appropriately.

If the crying continues, parents should go over and comfort him, but do not turn on the lights and should not tease the child, pick him up, or shake him. If the crying gets worse, wait 2 minutes and check again, and consider whether you are hungry, urinating, fever, etc.

The problem of babies crying and difficult to sleep may be that mothers have entered a misunderstanding in sleeping. If the baby cries or sleeps restlessly, the mother immediately holds it into her arms and shakes, which will make the baby develop bad sleep habits, and must be held to sleep in order to fall asleep, and then shaking may also make the baby's immature brain collide with the hard skull, causing intracranial hemorrhage. The correct way to do this is to gently pat your baby on the back or hold his little hand until he falls asleep.

In response to the baby's crying, the mother should also learn to observe and not misjudge the baby's needs. When the baby just howls dryly, crying without tears, she just wants to accompany and hug; When the baby suddenly howls and cries, there is often discomfort, such as physical discomfort, stuck hands and feet, etc. The problem of baby sleep is a major concern for mothers, and a correct understanding can avoid detours

If the baby usually sleeps well at night, and suddenly cries frequently one night, the possibility of intussusception needs to be ruled out; If the baby usually sleeps unsteadily, consider that it is because he is not full and hungry, so he should be fed with full milk or complementary food before going to bed; It is also possible that the baby has poop, or has been bitten by mosquitoes, or has eczema and itchiness, which needs to be treated symptomatically; It may also be that the baby is deficient in calcium, you can take the baby to check the trace elements, diagnose it and supplement the corresponding deficiencies; After ruling out the above possibilities, if the baby is surprised, he will cry at night, when the baby is crying, the mother comforts the baby with a soft voice, and at the same time touches the muscles, which can quickly make the baby feel safe and quiet.

Parents must be by their children's side, sleep with their children, give their children a sense of security, and create a quiet sleeping environment for their children.

Children's difficulty in falling asleep is generally caused by factors such as strenuous exercise before bedtime, excessive sleep during the day, lack of trace elements, etc., which can be alleviated by avoiding children's bedtime exercise, shortening daytime sleep time, and supplementing trace elements.

You can give your child an appropriate amount of vitamin D and calcium tablets, and an appropriate amount of sun exposure to relieve the difficulty of falling asleep.

If the child drinks coffee or stimulant drinks before going to bed, it will also be difficult to fall asleep, and if the child has difficulty falling asleep for a long time, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.

First of all, don't speculate, the common cause of sleep disturbance: the quality of sleep has a great impact on the baby's health. If your baby doesn't sleep well and doesn't seem to be asleep, the possible reasons are as follows:
