Many babies have the phenomenon of kicking the blanket when they sleep at night, and many young parents are very puzzled about this issue. If the baby kicks the blanket at night, it is easy to catch a cold. Parents should not only keep getting up to cover their babies with blankets, but also pay attention to observing what causes their babies to kick the blankets. So, what are the reasons for kicking the blankets while sleeping at night?
1. The baby's blanket is a bit thick
If the baby's blanket is too thick, they will feel very hot and naturally kick the blanket. In addition, babies are more prone to sweating than adults, so if the room is not very cold, there is no need to cover it with a thick blanket. Parents can increase or decrease bedding according to changes in weather and maintain a warm state, keeping the indoor temperature from overheating.
2. The baby's stomach is uncomfortable
If parents always feed their babies a lot of food, or greasy and difficult to digest food, then babies may have some difficulties digesting these foods. The baby's gastrointestinal function is not perfect, which can increase the burden on the stomach. If the baby cannot sleep well and keeps turning over and kicking the blanket, parents should pay attention to whether it is a gastrointestinal problem for the baby, especially for those with weak spleen and stomach.
3. The baby is sick
When a baby is sick, their body will feel very uncomfortable, with symptoms such as irritability, sweating, difficulty falling asleep, and restless sleep. The baby will always turn over and kick the blanket, and parents can handle it according to the baby's actual situation.
4. Startled
Babies may be scared or fall during the day when they kick the blanket, so they may be kicked at night.
