What Causes Less Sleep And More Sweat In An Infant?

Hi, i am wondering whether my 8 month old baby really need calcium? i have this doubt because he is not sleeping well, especially for recent several weeks. he will wake up every 1 to 2 hours, cry, roll over and over again,sit up with eyes still closing. he is very irritable also. and he sweats a lot when sleep even on these cold days. all these symptoms seem to relate to calcium deficiency but i am not sure.

Pediatrician 's  Response
there is no relationship with lack of sleep and calcium.. normally,, give light food before going to bed. avoid chocolate and caffeine drinks in the evening, encourage to take bath before going to bed.. give a cup warm milk before going to bed.. place the baby in a calm or dark room which is very comfortable to sleep without any distrubance.
finally.. calcium has nothing to do with sleep quality
