A four month old baby is still very weak and easily frightened, leading to symptoms such as waking up at night and crying. So what should a four month old child do if they are scared?
Four month old babies are particularly susceptible to environmental factors that can cause panic due to their underdeveloped nervous system. The specific solution is as follows:
1. When children are frightened, parents must comfort them by gently tapping and caressing them, giving them a certain sense of security. Meanwhile, they can play soothing music in the child's room to alleviate their emotions.
2. In terms of treatment, children can be supplemented with vitamin D, which is beneficial for regulating autonomic dysfunction. At the same time, perform spinal massage therapy on the acupoints on both sides of the back before going to bed every day. Pinch and lift from the caudal vertebrae to the cervical vertebrae, repeating 3-4 times before going to bed every night. Generally speaking, a child's frightened state can show significant improvement within about a week.
3. You can also use physical therapy to soothe frightened children. Apply the baby lotion to the center of the baby's index finger and middle finger tip, gently rub it 30-50 times, and the baby will soon be quiet.
4. Use the method of diverting attention to calm a frightened baby. When the field of view changes, babies may feel strange and forget about the previous fright. Parents gently blow air onto the baby's forehead. He will immediately blink and take a deep breath, and after repeating it a few times, he will forget why he is crying.
In addition to the above methods, if the baby drinks formula milk, parents should ensure the quality and quantity of milk every day. If you have already started eating complementary foods, it is best to provide your baby with a balanced diet and natural foods. Under normal circumstances, do not give him so-called supplements, nutritional products, and health medications.
