Patient's question:
My baby is a premature child, and I have been very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of situations, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will become worse. Could you please explain why a newborn cries for a long time every time they cry?Doctor's answer:
The primary factor is hunger. If you gently touch his mouth with your fingertips, he will immediately try to follow with his mouth—it's a sign of hunger. When breastfeeding, you can feed on demand; just feed him when he's hungry.If the child is affected by neonatal diseases, the mother must take the child to a doctor immediately for treatment and avoid blindly using small advertisements for medicine. It's important to use medication reasonably. For parents, it's essential to observe any changes in the child's symptoms and do everything possible to help them receive timely treatment for the illness.
