What to do if your newborn struggles

The newborn's struggle and holding back may be due to the normal development of the newborn. This situation generally does not need to be relieved and will slowly recover as the newborn grows older. If the newborn is pricked too frequently, it is necessary to help the newborn check as soon as possible to prevent accidents. This situation may also be caused by milk protein allergy, excessive clothing, improper environment, eczema, etc. Parents can appropriately help the newborn change these uncomfortable symptoms.

The problem of newborns is a big problem. They cannot speak and cannot correctly express their discomfort symptoms like adults. When they are sick or have problems, they need careful observation by their parents. Some parents find that newborns are always struggling and holding their breath. So what should they do if newborns struggle and hold their breath?
1. The development of newborns is divided into many stages, and the performance in each stage is different. Generally, at the beginning, they are prone to flexion and extension of limbs, head tilt to one side, and fists. These phenomena are the basis for the newborn's future movements. They are normal and parents do not need to be overly nervous. If the newborn's movements are frequent and even affect normal sleep, the toes are often hooked, and the legs are clamped tightly when changing diapers, then it is necessary to consider that it is caused by pathological muscle tension and need to seek medical treatment.
2. When vitamin D is insufficient, the newborn will also tremble frequently, wake up or even cry loudly, and need to be held to sleep. In this case, it is necessary to supplement vitamin D for the newborn in time. It is recommended to supplement under the guidance of a doctor to prevent over-supplementation or under-supplementation to prevent accidents.
3. Another situation is caused by colic. At this time, the baby will have a lot of gas, gurgling stomach, frequent crying, and granular stool. It is recommended that parents help the baby massage the stomach. When massaging, you can rub the palms to warm them up, and then help the baby massage clockwise to promote the baby's gastrointestinal motility.
4. Of course, there are other rare situations, such as milk protein allergy, excessive clothing, improper environment, eczema, etc. If the baby struggles all over, his face turns red, his hands and feet tremble, he cries, cries loudly, and has trouble sleeping, professionals are needed to rule out abnormal problems.
