When babies are young, they cannot express their inner thoughts with enough language. When they feel unwell or have certain needs, they can only attract their mother's attention through crying and other means. As long as the mother observes carefully, she can understand. So, does a 16 month old baby cry at night when it's hot?
The body temperature of a baby is close to that of an adult, or even higher. As long as the indoor temperature is suitable at night, there is no need to cover the baby too thick. If the baby wakes up crying in the middle of the night, the mother should check the specific cause, such as the baby needing to urinate, being hungry, having thick or thin blankets, fever, etc., which can cause discomfort to the baby. Crying is used to express this. Therefore, if a 16 month old baby is hot at night, they will cry.
At 16 months old, the baby has already adapted to the addition of complementary foods. However, if there is not enough complementary food added, the baby may also experience hunger in the middle of the night. At this time, the baby should be fed with milk once, and when the baby's stomach is full, they will fall asleep peacefully.
Baby's skin is quite sensitive, and if they have wet urine, they will cry because their buttocks are very uncomfortable when wet with urine. Many babies still wear diapers at this time, and the stuffiness of diapers can cause diaper rash. After changing them in time, the baby will fall asleep again.
