The child often wakes up at night.

anonymously, about girl, 1 year

Good afternoon, my child is 4.5 months old. We have a problem - sleep at night. In the daytime, like everyone else, we sleep 2–3 sleep, and at night, we sleep very poorly, wake up, cry, turn in sleep, restless sleep, even the chest doesn’t help much. At bedtime, the baby bathes in the bath. We are on mixed feeding, applied to the chest during the day and all night. Advise, as a little crumbs to be quieter at night. How to improve the sleep of the baby and mom?))

Hello! Your problem may be that you have not set the day regimen. Children at this age should do everything according to the clock, and when there is none, restless sleep appears. Also, a child may not sleep well due to bathing before bedtime, try bathing the child 2-3 hours before bedtime.

If the baby is mixed feeding, the cause of anxiety may be due to the wrong mixture, which can cause colic and therefore restless sleep. For nutrition, you should contact your local pediatrician.
