Children do not sleep crying at night may be caused by a variety of reasons. 1. Physical discomfort Children may feel uncomfortable because of pain, itching, abdominal distension, etc. in a certain part of the body, leading to crying and not sleeping. For example, colic, which is more common in infants, can cause paroxysmal abdominal pain, let the child cry restless. Or cold, fever and other diseases, will bring a variety of physical discomfort symptoms, affecting the child's sleep. 2. Poor sleep environment The environment temperature is too high or too low, too noisy, too bright, etc. may make it difficult for children to fall asleep and cry. A suitable sleep environment is very important for the quality of children's sleep. 3. Hunger or thirst If your child is hungry or thirsty before bed, or during sleep, he will cry. Especially infants, the need for food is more frequent. 4. Lack of security The child may feel unfamiliar with the surrounding environment or not feel safe enough to cry at night. For example, the sleeping environment has changed, or parents are not around. If your child continues to cry or is accompanied by other abnormal symptoms, such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea, etc., you should seek medical attention in time to rule out disease factors. At the same time, parents should create a good sleeping environment for their children, give them enough care and security, and help them develop good sleeping habits.
