Many babies may experience discomfort while sleeping at night, and some may notice sweat on their pillowcases, but few mothers know what's going on. Often, when faced with this problem, many mothers feel very anxious and afraid that their baby's body may have problems. Let me explain it to you below.
What's wrong with a baby sleeping at night and sweating on a pillowcase
In fact, sweating in babies is a normal physiological phenomenon, and parents don't need to worry too much. Sweat can take away excess heat from the body. Due to the rapid growth and development of babies, their metabolism is more vigorous than that of adults, and they produce relatively more heat and metabolic products.
In addition, the underdeveloped autonomic nervous system in children can cause the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for sweat glands, to become temporarily excited and experience excessive sweating when falling asleep, which is completely normal. But other situations also need to be noted.
What should I do if my baby doesn't sleep soundly at night
1. Do not turn on the lights to sleep, as this is particularly harmful and can affect the baby's nerves, naturally affecting their sleep;
2. Before the baby goes to bed, let the baby calm down and not play too excitedly. Watching TV or listening to stories before falling asleep can make him overly excited and nervous, and his brain remains in an excited state even after falling asleep, which can easily lead to restless sleep.
3. Calcium deficiency in children is also an important factor that causes them to have difficulty sleeping at night, which can be treated by supplementing calcium and vitamin D.
It is recommended that mothers pay more attention to their babies' movements while they are sleeping. They can choose to install a small camera in their baby's room, which can help us monitor their sleeping state at night. If you find that your child always cries and doesn't sleep at night, be sure to comfort them and try to reduce their sleep time during the day.
