Question
My child just gave birth, but the condition after birth was not good. It seems that my pelvic area was too narrow, and my baby was born with severe hypoxia, as the doctor said. I was very afraid at the time, afraid that the child might develop cerebral palsy. I would like to know how to treat neonatal hypoxia?
Answer
The baby should be hospitalized for treatment. The doctor will provide oxygen therapy and other treatments based on the baby’s condition. If a newborn experiences hypoxia, it can cause damage to the body, making the baby weak and with low immunity. Therefore, if the baby is breastfed, the mother should consume nutrient-rich foods in her diet to help the baby fully absorb nutrition, strengthen their constitution, and improve immunity.
