Infant’s jumping which is so serious that it affects sleep may be caused by imperfect development of central nervous system, vitamin D deficiency, inappropriate sleeping environment, etc. According to the reasons, we should take corresponding treatment measures, such as calcium supplementation, improvement of the environment, etc.
1. Imperfect development of the central nervous system: the central nervous system of infants is still not well developed, the central inhibitory effect on the periphery is weak, and it is easy to have a startle reaction. Timely appeasement of the baby can increase the baby’s sense of security, reduce the brain due to restlessness produced by the excitement, and thus reduce the baby’s startle response during sleep.
2 Vitamin D deficiency: infant jumping may also be due to vitamin D deficiency, etc., in addition to the appropriate increase in the baby’s outdoor sunshine time, but also under the guidance of the doctor for vitamin D supplementation.
3. Sleeping environment is not suitable: the baby’s sleeping environment temperature is too high or too low, or the light is too bright, may cause the baby’s jumping reaction during sleep. Symptoms will be relieved when the environment is improved.
There are other pathological reasons that can cause babies to jump and seriously affect the sleep, it is recommended to consult a doctor for a clear diagnosis, and follow the doctor’s instructions to carry out targeted treatment so as not to miss the opportunity for treatment. All of the above medications should be used under medical supervision.
