What should I do if a newborn has difficulty breathing?

Patient's question:

Newborn holds breath, face turns red, eyes roll back

Doctor's answer:

Hello, newborn babies have their own set of movements, such as sticking out their tongues, blowing bubbles, stretching and turning their faces red, holding their breath, sleeping with occasional smiles, and making "ooh" and "ahh" sounds. These are all normal phenomena. Parents do not need to panic or worry if something is wrong with the baby's brain, as long as the baby is feeding normally and urinating and defecating normally, there is no need for special treatment. As the baby grows a bit older, these movements will gradually disappear. Wishing your baby good health!
