What is the problem with newborns drooling?

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. What could be the issue with newborns drooling?

Doctor's answer:

Babbling is a normal physiological phenomenon. At 4 months, a baby's digestive fluid secretion increases, but their swallowing reflex function is not yet fully developed, leading to an increase in saliva. By 6 months, the baby usually starts to develop their milk teeth. There are many triggers for pediatric endocrine diseases. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, support gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
