Question 1: The baby is 28 days old and is exclusively breastfed. He cries incessantly at night and does not cry when feeding. He vomits milk after eating, one after another, and cannot burp. The weather has been a bit cold these past two days, and I started to hear the baby\’s snoring, which I didn\’t know whether it was runny nose or phlegm. At first, I choked on the milk and coughed. Now I occasionally cough twice for no reason, stick out my tongue, occasionally spit out bubbles, and have no nails on my lips. It turns purple and the temperature is normal. Could this be pneumonia? Dr. Luo Zhen’s answer: Babies crying at night are most likely caused by intestinal discomfort. For example: flatulence. Intestinal flatulence is a physiological phenomenon and will be relieved after 4-6 months. It is recommended to continue breastfeeding. Do not eat too full too fast each time, otherwise eating too much air will aggravate crying. Stand up and burp after each feeding. . Massage the baby\’s belly in a clockwise direction with the navel as the center every day for ten minutes each time. You can let the baby lie on his stomach more often. Climbing on the parent\’s body to sleep can also relieve the crying. When crying, you can also use an airplane to hold him, and take probiotics or antibiotics. Silicone oil can also provide relief. For infant pneumonia, the main observation is the mental state, breathing, and sleep. If coughing increases, frequent milk choking, rapid breathing, poor energy, and poor feeding, it should be taken seriously and you need to see a doctor in time. Question 2: A 33-day-old baby’s eyes are sometimes too close together, giving the appearance of cross-eyes. I tried it on him, he can chase objects, his eyes can also follow the objects, and he will turn his eyes when he hears noises. The baby\’s eyes are small, with less white and more black eyes. Dr. Sun Cuiying’s answer: As long as the baby’s pursuit response is okay, the rest will vary from person to person. If you have cross-eyes, you can observe the baby\’s current condition, which may be the reason why the baby\’s eyes are open and the eye cracks are small. Question 3: The baby is almost two years old and can only call mommy and can only say um and ah. It feels like he understands everything but can\’t speak a few words. Dr. Cui Lixia answered: In this case, it is recommended to go to the children\’s rehabilitation department or health department to evaluate the child\’s development. If everything else is normal but language development is lagging behind, language training can be performed.
