What Causes Disturbed Sleep And Crying In A Child?
Hi, my baby is 15 weeks old , weighs 6.4kg and he won t sleep! He has been diagnosed with mild reflux and is on 0.5mg nexiam 2x a day.During the day he will cry and scream when I try put him to sleep and at night he falls asleep for a few minutes and then wakes up! I m at the end of what I can handle! Normal docs say he is a picture of health but his sleep problems aren t making sense then! Should I take him to go and see a neurologost? Help
A 15 weeks old baby who is not sleeping well most probably is not getting enough nutrition. The sign of having a sufficient breast fed or bottle is that the child sleeps 2 hours after feeding. There is no need to go to a neurologist. Also the reflux is normal in newborns up till 3 months of age.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
