Please ask the doctor: The baby is almost ten months old, and he will cry between 10:30 and 11:30 pm every day, and his body will be straightened and he will continue to sleep for about 5 to 15 minutes. What are the symptoms this may be? Will it affect the development of the body? If you need medical treatment, which department is needed? Thanks to the doctor group for answering.
Zhu Shiming, attending physician of the neonatal department of Chang Geng Memorial Hospital in Linkou, Taiwan, replied:
One of the reasons for crying at night in this age stage is nightmare. Usually, after falling asleep for a period of time, suddenly get up and cry, sometimes the whole body is stiff, and the eyes are still closed.
is generally recommended to turn on the light so that the child can see his parents. Usually, he will relieve his crying situation, and then comfort him and sleep more easily; it can also be supplemented with a pacifier or a little water or formula milk. There are still breastfeeding mommies that can be sucked by the child.
Medically possible causes include abdominal distension, foreign objects in the ear canal, gastroesophageal reflux, atopic dermatitis causing skin itch, etc. Ten-month-old children have relatively fewer chances of growth pain.
If you still bother you, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment, and you can go to Jianer Clinic or general pediatric clinic.
