If your baby wakes up crying at night

If your baby wakes up crying at night

What should you know about the causes?

The most common causes are:

  • Hunger;
  • Gas;
  • Teething;
  • Health problems;
  • Bad dreams;
  • Sleep regression.

It is not surprising that a child who has slept peacefully until now suddenly develops sleep problems. Often, babies aged 6 months are excessively attached to their mother or partner, that is, they exhibit a behavior characteristic of separation anxiety; it is necessary for the little one to feel that everything is in order and it is time for sleep. When the baby is fussy, you should be with him and calm him down, but keep talking to a minimum and do not have bright lights in the bedroom. The child should get used to the sleep regime as much as possible and get into a habit.

If the sleep rhythm is chronically disturbed, the regime has not stabilized despite efforts, and insomnia negatively affects the development of the baby, you should consult a pediatrician and take into account the specialist's recommendation.

Remember, restful sleep is essential for both infants and adults.
