Patient's question:
When a newborn is drinking milk, sometimes their arms and legs keep moving vigorously. Then, after drinking for a while, they stop and start crying with a bright red face. The crying doesn't seem painful. This happens repeatedly. Is it because there isn't enough milk? What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
This situation is caused by insufficient milk supply, the baby not eating enough, and urgency. Bao Ma should pay attention to increasing nutrition and consuming more bone broth, such as pork rib soup and large bone soup. If the milk supply is truly insufficient, you can feed the baby with milk to increase their nutrition and meet their growth and development needs, thereby avoiding malnutrition in the baby. If the baby shows this symptom after being fed with formula milk, it is recommended to visit the pediatric department of the hospital.
