Newborn babies spend most of their time sleeping, except for crying a few times at the beginning, because sleeping can help babies relax and meet their physical needs. But many parents have reported that their babies are difficult to wake up as soon as they go to sleep. Let's take a look here, what if a newborn baby keeps sleeping and can't wake up?
Newborns spend 90% of their day in a state of sleep before reaching their first month. Only when they are breastfeeding, urinating, and crying will they wake up on their own. Otherwise, without external interference, babies will basically sleep all the time.
If it's time to breastfeed and the baby still can't be woken up, it may be because they're not hungry yet. Parents can observe the baby. If the baby's tongue coating is thick and white, and looks smooth, it may indicate that there is coldness in the body. Also, pay attention to the baby's appetite and bowel movements. If the baby always cannot eat, has a small appetite, and the stool is blue, sticky, and shapely, it indicates that there is moisture in the body. Parents must pay attention to the drowsiness caused by discomfort in infants, and it is best to examine the specific reasons and prescribe targeted medicine.
If a baby eats enough and their body is normal, they will sleep soundly. Parents should create a comfortable environment for their babies, allowing them to maintain regular and normal sleep, which can promote their brain development. In short, parents should cultivate good sleep habits in their babies, and it is best not to suddenly wake them up and disturb their sleep. Good and sufficient sleep is very beneficial for infant development.
