Why are babies prone to startle easily while sleeping

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

When a baby lacks calcium, the excitability of the nervous and muscular systems increases, and they may also be prone to startle easily. Fatter babies are more likely to lack calcium compared to thinner babies, so when a fatter baby startsle, it should be considered that there might be a possibility of calcium deficiency. Additionally, startle reflex can occur if there is an issue in the brain, but at the same time, there will be other abnormal phenomena.
