What should I do if my baby cries at night after being born due to lack of oxygen?

Patient's question:

When the baby was born, it was said to have choked on water. Now, there are two or three nights a week when the baby cries badly, and it seems to be easily startled. I want to ask if the choking symptom is still present.

Doctor's answer:

When the baby was born, it choked on water. Now, it cries two or three nights a week, and it seems easily startled. Regarding the situation you mentioned, it might be due to calcium deficiency. You can give the baby fish oil and expose it to sunlight to enhance calcium absorption. Choking is characterized by weak sucking, spitting up milk, weak crying, restlessness, purple lips, and bluish skin around the mouth. If there are no symptoms mentioned above, it means the baby is not choking.
