General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I think that the problem is that he still feeds at night. He should sleep during all night. He may be drinking too much milk. Increase his physical activity and playing to make him tired.

Also can give multivitamins and vitamin C.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
