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. Is it possible that the baby is easily startled due to a medical condition?Doctor's answer:
Being easily startled is a symptom of calcium deficiency. It's best to supplement calcium for him. Mom taking calcium, the calcium is almost negligible for the baby to suck through breast milk. Therefore, this method is not recommended. It's better to directly supplement calcium for the baby for better results.If the baby is breastfed, diarrhea is likely breast milk-induced diarrhea, which is normal. As the baby's digestive system matures, it will gradually produce pasty stools. Especially after starting complementary foods, the stools will gradually become more solid.
