"What should I do if my two-month-old baby is frightened or startled?"
When a two-month-old baby is frightened, the first thing parents should do is to comfort the baby and give it a sense of security. Do not underestimate the harm of the baby being frightened, as they lack a sense of security and tend to cry in the middle of the night after being frightened. Children with weaker physical conditions may experience symptoms of fever. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to the baby's daily behavior for a few days after it is frightened.
If a two-month-old baby is frightened, it is recommended that parents should comfort the baby more, especially the mother, who should hold the baby more often or stroke the baby's head and ears, and create a comfortable and quiet resting environment for the baby.
1. After being frightened, infants often exhibit symptoms such as crying, poor appetite, insomnia, and frequent dreams. Parents should comfort the baby, provide a safe environment, and consult a doctor for examination and treatment if necessary.
2. Due to the immature development of the brain nerves, infants have limited understanding of the external world. Sudden sounds, unfamiliar environments, and changes in light and shadow may affect them, causing them to show expressions or actions of fear, followed by loud crying.
3. Poor appetite is also a common manifestation of infants being frightened, and younger infants may refuse to breastfeed. Infants may also exhibit fear of the night, reluctance to sleep, tossing and turning after falling asleep, crying in the night, or even waking up with screams.
