During the stage when children cannot speak, they usually express their needs or any discomfort through crying. So in daily life, some children often wake up in the middle of the night after falling asleep, which leaves many parents at a loss. Worried about their child's illness, parents want to know what causes it. Now let's take a look at what happens when a child cries while sleeping
What's going on when a child cries while sleeping
If a child plays wildly for too long before going to bed at night, their nervous system will be in an excited state, and their adrenal hormones will rise, causing physical fatigue but the brain to be excited. In this contradictory state, the child cannot sleep soundly. It is recommended that mothers play some bedtime stories or soft music in front of their children.
Perhaps some children have been crying when they fall asleep, which is most likely due to adults holding too many children. If a child cries, parents should immediately pick them up, or let the child fall asleep in the parents' arms, develop the habit of holding and sleeping. This situation may also occur, and parents need to gradually give up the problem of hugging and sleeping.
How to make children sleep well
You can give your child a bath and change into clean clothes before going to bed, but if they don't need to take a bath every day in winter, it is recommended to soak their feet before going to bed every day to help them sleep, and gently massage their legs and feet to make them sleep more soundly. If he cries at night, his mother needs to hug and care for him immediately. Don't pick him up, gently pat his back.
If a child cries while sleeping, it may be due to the child urinating while drinking milk. Parents don't need to worry too much, they can first check if the child is urinating. Of course, if the child plays too hard before bedtime, they won't sleep soundly either. Also, I often hold my child to sleep, so I let them lie in bed to sleep. They feel unsafe and may wake up when they sleep.
