Newborn cry less

Introduction To eat and cry, you need to be born. Eat less, cry less, and be a special manifestation of neonatal illness. A newborn is asleep for a long time after birth. Usually, the sleep time is more than 20 hours per day. If the newborn becomes less likely to eat less and cry less, he should go to the hospital for a timely visit.

Cause

There are many reasons for non-infection and infection.

Non-infected: There is a disease called endocrine system of congenital hypothyroidism. When you are born, you will eat less and cry less. If you delay the diagnosis and treatment, it can cause lifelong harm. Some intracranial injuries also have these manifestations.

There are more causes of infection, and congenital or acquired infectious diseases in children often make newborns less likely to eat less and cry less.

Newborns sleep 16-17 hours a day, about 70% of the day. Newborns rarely move during deep sleep, calm, eyeballs do not rotate, breathing rules. There are sucking movements when sleeping lightly, facial expressions are many, sometimes smiling, sometimes pouting, although the eyes are closed, but the eyeballs are turning under the eyelids, and sometimes the limbs have dance-like movements, parents should not bother him. However, we must pay attention to the pathological crying performance. If the newborn becomes less likely to eat less and cry less, he should go to the hospital for a timely visit.

Differential diagnosis

Differential diagnosis of neonatal crying:

1, congenital hypothyroidism: congenital hypothyroidism (congenital hypothyroidism) is due to congenital factors that make thyroid hormone synthesis disorders, secretion reduction, resulting in children with growth disorders, intelligent backwardness. Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the most common endocrine diseases in pediatrics.

2, neonatal milk weakness and reduction: neonatal milk is significantly reduced, it seems that I do not know hunger, breast milk time is short and weak, easy to suck milk when eating milk.

3, low neonatal response: low response (decreased responsiveness) is a group of clinical symptoms including a certain degree of dysfunction, decreased muscle tone, decreased limb activity, weak crying and sucking weakness. Newborns not only show low response in central nervous system diseases, but also other manifestations such as severe infection, dehydration, acidosis, metabolic disorders, anemia, hypothermia and respiratory failure. Low clinical response is often used to determine the severity of various diseases.
