Sleep is very important for newborn babies, regular sleep will also be related to the normal development and growth of the baby, so every novice mother will be very concerned about the quality of the baby's sleep, but it is precisely because of the concern is chaotic, mothers will always find that the baby in the sleep, often appear a lot of "strange behavior".
These "strange behaviors" always make parents very worried. But these weird activities of the child are not necessarily bad, he is also a signal that not only can indicate a negative situation, but also give a positive cue.
The following behaviors, parents can rest assured, this is a sign that the child is healthy.
1 Kicking in your sleep
Many mothers report that their children are very dishonest after falling asleep, which should also be worried about many parents. There are also children who sleep at night, their heads are still obediently resting on the pillow, and when they wake up the next morning, they become sleeping with their feet at the head of the bed and their heads at the end of the bed. This kind of action can actually make the baby adapt to the body faster, which is a sign of good bone development.
2 Turn over in your sleep
Under normal circumstances, children will only start to turn over at the age of three months, but many parents reflect that their children are not yet three months old, but they begin to turn over after falling asleep, is this because the child is the performance of the "little prodigy" or an abnormal feature? In fact, this is just the child's subconscious behavior, and it cannot prove that the child has superhuman wisdom, but this behavior can prove that the child's body is developing better and the brain has good control.
3 I was startled in my sleep
Many parents think that the baby is startled in the dream because of the lack of calcium, in fact, this is the performance of the "jumping reflex", when the child feels keen to the stimulus, there will be a surprise performance, which is enough to show that the child's central nervous system is very normal.
Of course, in addition to what we said above, these small actions of children in their sleep may also indicate disease.
1 Molars
Children aged 6-13 are likely to have such behaviors in their sleep, which will not only damage the quality and beauty of your child's teeth, but also cause muscle soreness and reduced sleep quality.
If the child often grinds his teeth during sleep, he should also pay attention to his mother. This is most likely due to the fact that the child has roundworms in his stomach or eats too much to digest. Baby in the two hours before going to bed, try not to eat the main meal, because the child is still young, it may lead to food accumulation and indigestion due to insufficient exercise.
If the teeth are excluded due to indigestion, parents should take the child to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, generally as long as the stool is tested, you can know whether the baby has roundworms in the abdomen, and give the child medicine in time according to the requirements.
2 Snoring
If the impact of sleeping position on the baby is excluded, and the baby is still snoring, then parents need to observe whether the baby has respiratory diseases, such as colds and fevers.
3 Wake up from crying
Some babies will suddenly wake up crying after falling asleep, which is actually a kind of night panic evidence, may be the child is frightened during the day, or it may be because of lung diseases, resulting in a feeling of suffocation after the child falls asleep.
If the baby's sleep is often accompanied by ear scratching, shaking of the head and other actions, parents should pay attention to observe whether the child has otitis media or inflammation of the external auditory canal. Parents should first observe whether the child's ear is red and swollen, and if they are not good at judging, they can also go to the hospital for examination.
Children crying when sleeping may also be caused by having fun before going to bed, and the nerves are too excited, so parents should pay attention to not to tease the child too excited before the baby goes to bed.
4 Sweating heavily
It is normal for children to sweat when they have just fallen asleep, and parents do not need to worry too much, but if the baby often sweats a lot when sleeping, then the mother needs to pay attention. If the baby is still often sweating profusely and accompanied by symptoms such as "late teething" and "rib valgus", then parents should consider whether the baby has changed into rickets and needs to take the child to the hospital for examination.
The healthy growth of the baby is actually inseparable from the careful care of the parents, parents usually when they are with the baby, they must also pay attention to observing the child's health, do not ignore the small details and affect the baby's physical health.
