Frequent tossing and turning during a baby’s sleep is often caused by environmental factors, but may also stem from underlying medical conditions. Environmental causes commonly include excessively high room temperature or overly thick bedding. Medical causes may involve abdominal discomfort or a common cold. Treatment options include gentle abdominal massage or administration of appropriate cold-relief medications.
