    Children's frequent night awakenings, the first may be because of drinking too much water at night, resulting in the need to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, parents can control the amount of water their children drink after 7 o'clock at night. The second possibility is that the child's sleeping position is not right and causes discomfort, so let the child adjust the appropriate posture to sleep.

    Babies wake up frequently at night, considering hunger, gastrointestinal discomfort, trace element deficiency, environment and other factors, it is necessary to adjust breast milk and improve the environment.

    1.Hunger: If the baby does not eat enough before bedtime, it is easy to be hungry, pay attention to increase breast milk or add complementary food in time.

    2.Gastrointestinal discomfort: If the baby's abdomen is cold, or after eating unclean food, there may be stomach pain and discomfort, resulting in awakening at night, and it can be appropriately soothed.

    3.Trace element deficiency: If calcium is deficient, it can also cause the baby's sympathetic nerve to be excited, resulting in unsteady sleep, and vitamin D supplementation needs to be prevented according to the doctor's instructions.

    4.Poor surrounding environment: If the baby's sleeping environment is very poor, there will also be unsteady sleep, try to create a quiet and comfortable environment for the baby.

    If there are uncomfortable symptoms, take your child to the hospital in time**.

    The baby's body is relatively fragile, so the baby will also have a lot of problems at this time, so fathers and mothers should also pay attention to related problems in the process of taking care of their children, and they should usually take care of their children.

    I also searched for relevant information on the Internet, in fact, many parents should encounter this situation. Because the baby's central nervous system has not yet developed at this time, it is relatively normal for the baby to wake up when he sleeps at night, and the baby may appear after three months. If the child is full, then the child's sleep time will be longer, and at this time parents should look at the child to see if the child is sweating at night, if the child is sweating or more irritable, it may be because the child is deficient in calcium.

    I also introduced to you why babies wake up easily, and how to prevent this situation. Therefore, at this time, the mother must formulate the amount of milk according to the specific situation according to the characteristics of the baby, and must let the baby eat enough, if the baby himself is not full, then the baby will be particularly unstable when sleeping at this time, and the mother should also take the child to the hospital to check the body to see if the child is missing some necessary nutrients.

    If it is really because the child is deficient in some necessary trace elements, then at this time the mother can supplement the child with such substances, so that the situation can be improved. But I think this situation is actually relatively normal, so parents don't need to worry so much. But this problem does need to be paid attention to, after all, the baby is still relatively fragile at this time.

    The baby's frequent awakening at night may be due to improper nursing or the baby is not full, and the diaper is particularly heavy and wet. In addition, the clothes are thicker, the wrapping is tighter, and even the indoor light is particularly bright, which eventually causes the baby's sleep quality to be poor, and the baby's frequent night awakening will affect the baby's growth and development.

    01 In fact, the indoor temperature is particularly high, resulting in a particularly dry nasal mucosa of the baby, or the baby's nose is not ventilated.

    02 The baby may be affected by parasites during growth and development, generally if there are parasites, the baby will wake up frequently at night, if the baby has indigestion or eats more full at night, resulting in food accumulation often leads to poor sleep quality and frequent night awakening.

    03 If the baby is older than 6 months, because the lack of trace elements will cause the baby to wake up frequently at night, at this moment the mother takes the baby to the hospital for trace element examination. Once the baby is deficient in calcium, it is necessary to supplement the baby with calcium and vitamin D in time and get more sun.

    04 Sometimes the baby who comes to the house is more excited, which will cause the baby to be more excited before going to bed and unable to sleep at night.
