Reasons and solutions for newborns to cry when they don’t sleep at night and solutions:
1. Environmental factors: too cold and too hot, too much clothing wrapped, or dirty and messy beds will cause newborns to cry when they don’t sleep at night. This is a normal phenomenon. No special treatment is required, and the environment is kept clean and hygienic.
2. Calcium deficiency: Newborns will not be able to sleep at night and cry. Usually, it is due to calcium deficiency that causes the cerebral cortex to be in an excited state. The symptoms shown are prone to crying, waking up, and sweating.
Solution:
(1) Proper sunbathing helps newborns supplement calcium. Expose the skin as much as possible, pay attention to covering your eyes, and avoid sun irritation.
(2) Use calcium lactate under the guidance of a doctor, and the hospital has calcium lactate suitable for babies.
3. Intestinal spasm: Due to the incomplete development of the newborn's gastrointestinal intestines, drinking too much breast milk or switching to milk powder will cause the baby's stomach to be stimulated and induce intestinal spasm. The neonatal nervous system is immature and cannot be adjusted by itself, so the newborn always cries when he does not sleep at night.
Solution:
(1) Do not feed too much each time, and do not feed too frequently. Excessive eating can increase the baby's abdominal discomfort.
(2) Appropriate massage and touch the baby's abdomen.
(3) Use antispasmodic drugs under the guidance of a doctor.
