Patient's question:
The baby is two weeks old. Today, someone in the neighborhood got divorced and set off fireworks, waking up the sleeping baby, who then cried nonstop. After changing the diaper, the baby fell back asleep. But napping became restless, with the baby jolting awake frequently. As soon as it got dark, the baby refused to eat or sleep, just crying endlessly. Holding the baby made napping more peaceful. Could the fireworks have had a negative effect on the baby?What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, how does the fireworks from a divorce in the neighborhood affect newborn babies?
Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the baby may be slightly startled and feel insecure. You can hold the baby until they fall asleep and then put them down. In the future, when encountering similar situations, make sure to close the doors and windows at home. If the baby is napping when fireworks are set off, you can hold them in your arms and put them back to bed after the fireworks have ended to let them continue their nap. I hope this response is helpful to you. The above advice is for the question "How much interference do fireworks have on a newborn baby who is only two weeks old?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
