Ask a QuestionMom of a 3 yr 2 m old boy1 Year ago
Q.
My baby screams and cries in his sleep since around 5-6 months of age. Now he is about to turn 18 months and he still cries and gets restless in his sleep. Sometimes when he would cry hysterically i use to wake him up from his sleep and he would become normal in a while. Also you can’t pacify him by sitting and patting. You have to walk around and only then after a while will he be calm. Why is it so? Is this normal in babies? Or do i need to see a paediatrician?

Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. whenever the child is crying excessively you have to take hold of the child in the arms.
you have to find the cause of excessive crying because it can be due to either hunger or it might be due to colic at this age.
after breastfeeding also if the the crying continues you can give anti colic medicines and massage and treatment on the line of colic pain.
you can walk briskly by holding thef child on the shoulder and also sing a lullaby.
also see for any local discomfort or temperature variations (hot or cold).
for nasal blockage related crying give nasal saline drops.
observe for oral fulcers or fungal infection causing pain.
