Patient's question:
My baby has been born for over a month. When she was half a month old, she drank formula milk and occasionally kicked her legs and waved her arms. At first, she didn't do this when she just started eating, but after a while, she would start scratching around. I wonder what's going on?Doctor's answer:
If it is confirmed that there is no illness, dressing is comfortable, and it is confirmed that the child is hungry, then the mother can gently pat the baby's back while feeding to give the child a sense of security from the mother, and establish a habitual routine in this way. When the baby is feeding, sometimes if they are hungry, they may eat more quickly, showing more impatience. It is recommended to soothe the baby, talk to the baby more, and tell them to eat slowly and not to hurry.
