Some novice parents find that their babies are prone to crying when they are drowsy. Parents are worried whether it is due to physical discomfort or a normal physiological phenomenon. So, what should they do if their babies cry when they are drowsy?
Firstly, if a baby cries while dozing off, it may be due to physical discomfort or poor sleeping conditions, such as bright lighting or loud noises in the room; Babies do not yet know how to fall asleep on their own and need to rely on their parents to calm them down and fall asleep, such as breastfeeding, cuddling, etc; The baby expresses signals to sleep, but due to not falling asleep quickly, they may experience irritability and other emotions.
Secondly, when a child falls asleep and cries, parents should prepare for bedtime by establishing a quiet sleeping environment for the baby. The room should maintain a suitable temperature, usually around 26 ℃, and the brightness of the lights should be dimmed, such as leaving a small night light; Let the baby learn to fall asleep independently, for example, you can hold the baby at the beginning and slowly let it go when the baby feels sleepy.
Finally, if the baby's mental state is good and their development curve is normal, parents don't have to worry too much. If the child often wakes up from sleep, affecting sleep and having a poor mental state, then it is necessary to take the child to the hospital for examination and diagnosis. The child may have some trace element deficiencies or diseases in their body.
