Different babies have different personalities. Being lively and active is a good thing for babies, but being too energetic can also bring certain troubles. Some babies have so much energy that they get up in the middle of the night to play. And in the middle of the night, it's time for parents to recharge their energy. So, how should parents deal with babies getting up in the middle of the night?
1. Reduce the baby's daytime sleep time
If the baby is still full of energy until midnight and still needs to get up and play, parents can let the baby play to their heart's content during the day, making the baby more tired at night and ensuring the quality of their sleep at night.
2. Let the baby eat enough at night
Some babies wake up in the middle of the night crying because they feel hungry and wake up from their sleep. Parents can make their babies eat more at night to prevent them from waking up hungry in the middle of the night.
3. Physiological crying
Due to the baby's diaper being wet, wrapped too tightly, or the blanket being too thick, the baby may feel hot and sweat, causing discomfort and waking up in the middle of the night. In this case, as long as parents promptly eliminate the baby's discomfort and adverse stimuli from external objects, the baby can easily fall asleep quietly.
4. The baby has contracted pinworm disease
The baby is suffering from pinworm disease. At night, pinworms will crawl to the baby's anal opening to lay eggs. At this time, the baby's anus will be particularly itchy and the skin will be uncomfortable, so the baby will also wake up and cry. If this situation occurs, it is recommended that parents take their babies to the hospital for examination.
