  • Colic. The intestines of a newborn baby is sterile. At the age of 0 to 3 months, the process of active formation of normal microflora is underway, this can be accompanied by very painful colic. Attacks of pain in the abdomen occur throughout the day, but are especially worse at night.
  • Cutting teeth. Teething in some children is asymptomatic, while in others it is accompanied by pain in the swollen gums, their unbearable itching, diarrhea and sometimes even high fever. During the day, the child may be distracted by games and other entertainment, but by the evening the discomfort increases.
  • If the child is not sleeping and constantly crying -perhaps his day routine is organized incorrectly. From 21 to 22 pm, the human body produces a hormone that helps it fall asleep. If you do not put the baby to sleep at the right time, his nervous system is over-energized. There is a failure of natural biorhythms - the child wants to sleep, but from excessive agitation with all the desire you can not sleep. It makes him cry and act up.

When a child sleeps poorly at night, cries and shows anxiety in every way, you need to take care of his well-being and create comfortable conditions for sleep. Here's how to do it:

  • Massage helps to fight colic,Applying a warm heater to the belly, frequent laying the baby on the belly. There are also anti-colic drugs, their purpose should be discussed with the pediatrician.
  • To facilitate teething, you can spread the gums with an anesthetic dental gel designed for babies. The choice of a particular drug is better to entrust the pediatrician.

Parents should watch their child,to understand at what time of day he begins to show the first signs of fatigue. You don't need to wait until the baby is completely capricious, it's better to put him to bed right away. You also need to regularly ventilate the room in which the child sleeps, make sure that the air is not too dry and stuffy. Read also:
