Is it normal for a baby to hit someone with their head when they are tired?
The language development of young children is not yet fully developed, and they cannot accurately express their needs. When their needs are not met, emotional anxiety can lead to the phenomenon of hitting people with their heads. This situation should be considered normal. As children grow older, it is important to cooperate with parents' education to gradually correct them. It is also possible that the baby's head is a little itchy, so it is necessary to wash their hair frequently and it is best not to put a hat on them.
How to determine if the baby is sleepy?
1. Crying is one of the most common reminders, while eating hands and kicking legs are several common behaviors of babies during infancy. Through these expressions, babies need to express their needs such as hunger, drowsiness, convenience, and so on. Babies who feel drowsy may exhibit different behaviors from others. Although they cry and fuss, they do not exhaust their vocal strength. Instead, they may feel impatient and irritable. When crying, they will also close their eyes tightly, furrow their brows, and cry intermittently.
2. When the little baby is tired and the small hand that cannot be completely controlled touches the eyes, hold down the eyes; This action often occurs because the small hand cannot be controlled properly, so it will rub for a while and then move away, but soon it will definitely rub the eyes again.
3. Close your eyes while eating; When a baby is tired, they usually close their eyes tightly, and when they eat their hands, they even close their eyes tightly. The frequency of eating their hands is different from when they are hungry. Careful mothers can distinguish it well by observing more.
It is not surprising for babies to hit people with their heads when they are tired, as it is also a sign that babies want to sleep. As a mother, you can pay more attention to your baby's every move and see what symptoms they have. This way, when your baby makes some movements, you can also timely judge what their needs are, so that they can be met in a timely manner.
