Night sweats
Hello. My daughter is 6 yrs old and every day in the night for the had few hours, within the first hour of falling asleep, she is drenched in sweat. It's mostly her head and sometimes her body. This happens everyday and post that it's all normal. Shes 22 kgs abd 3.9 feet abd is otherwise an intelligent active child. Is this normal. Can this be because of sleep rhythms and can we do anything to help. And this one hour is when she's in deep sleep as well. Please advise. Thank you

Please visit a pediatrician for check up. It can be a sign of vitamin D deficiency which is quite common in children.
