After one year old, babies become more and more energetic, but there are often some actions that parents do not understand, often leaving parents confused and unsure of the reason. For example, dancing and kicking randomly, and some even frequently shaking their heads. So what's wrong with an 11 month old baby shaking their head? What should I do if I keep shaking my head?
What's wrong with an 11 month old baby shaking his head
An 11 month old child shaking their head should be a normal phenomenon, indicating that they will learn to speak in the next stage. Because he was born eleven months ago, he already understood many things adults say, but he couldn't express himself in words, so he used his own way of expression to express what he wanted. Most children are like this, but your child chose to shake his head as the most effective way to express himself. If you don't want him to continue shaking his head, you can try asking him to do other actions.
If the above phenomena are not met, the child's age and abnormal shaking of the head accompanied by sweating during sleep at night should be related to a lack of certain trace elements in the body, including calcium deficiency. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a blood analysis and laboratory test to identify the cause and provide targeted supplementation and treatment. Medications can be adjusted with multidimensional element tablets, and children can be encouraged to drink more milk, lean meat soup, bone soup, etc. on a regular basis.
What should I do if my baby keeps shaking his head
Method 1: Give babies appropriate calcium supplements. When a baby lacks calcium in their body, they will show a constant shaking of their head, especially when sleeping. The head is prone to sweating, which can also make the baby's mental state very poor, and they will cry and not sleep at night.
Method 2: Maintain a suitable room temperature. Babies can only grow up healthily at a suitable temperature, and temperatures that are too high or too low can cause some adverse reactions. Therefore, it is important to maintain a suitable room temperature. When the temperature is high, babies will shake their heads constantly due to heat, and when it is cold, their bodies will not be able to accept it. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure a room temperature.
Method 3: Understand the baby's needs. When children in infancy encounter things they don't like or physically reject, they can't refuse with language or their hands and feet. They only use shaking their heads to express themselves. At this time, parents need to understand their baby's needs.
Method 4: Go to the hospital for examination. When the baby shakes their head very frequently, they should be taken to the hospital for examination, and the doctor should give the baby a good check-up. This can not only ensure the baby's health but also make parents feel more at ease.
It is necessary to carefully analyze and observe the movements and phenomena that parents cannot understand when their baby appears. If there are frequent movements such as shaking the head, they should still be taken seriously, as there are reasons behind them. The best way is to go to the maternal and child specialist department of the hospital for a comprehensive examination to avoid delaying the treatment of the baby due to illness.
