Patient's question:
Baby is 25 days old. Since 20 days, the sleep hasn't been very good, especially at night. It always wakes up after sleeping for two or three hours, often keeping its eyes open for a long time. Sometimes it doesn't sleep until six or seven hours have passed. When placed in the bed, it immediately starts crying and insists on being held. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, if the child is eating poorly, has poor mental response, and sleeps a lot, it is important to check if the child has an infection. Look for symptoms such as fever, diarrhea, foamy discharge, and check if the umbilicus has an infection. If signs of infection are found, take the child to the hospital for examination promptly. Then, follow the doctor's guidance to treat the condition based on the specific test results. If other reactions are good and there are no other symptoms, it may be that the child has had enough to eat and is going to bed to sleep. This should be normal. As long as the child is growing well and has no other symptoms.
