How to determine if a child is scared

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday and last night, I suddenly burst into tears more than twice at 2 a.m., and my crying was very loud. During the day, I was in good spirits and had a good appetite. My urination and defecation were normal. What kind of help do I need: Could you please estimate what the reason might be?

Doctor's answer:

From your description, it might be that the baby got startled. You can apply infant lotion to the center of the baby's index and middle fingers and gently rub it about 30-50 times. The baby will quickly calm down. If the baby cannot fall asleep due to being startled, you can press the fingertips of your own fingers on the baby's fingertips acupoints, pressing each finger 5 times. This is very effective in helping the baby fall asleep. The above suggestions are for the question "Did the child get scared?" and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
