Answer

Brain changes in premature infants typically refer to the occurrence of intracranial hemorrhage in infants between one and two months old.

If an infant has health issues, they may exhibit symptoms such as an enlarged fontanelle, crying and fussiness, upward rolling of the eyes, and frequent vomiting.
