Question
The newborn sleeps for a longer duration each day and has insufficient feeding, accompanied by jaundice. How should this situation be handled? What should be paid attention to in daily life?
Answer
Based on the provided information, the newborn’s condition falls within the normal range, and no special treatment is needed unless there are specific symptoms. It is recommended that parents take the newborn to the hospital for a timely diagnosis. Currently, newborn hearing screenings are mainly used to detect any abnormalities in the hearing of early newborns, and the duration of screening varies from individual to individual. As long as the baby’s hearing is confirmed to be normal after the examination, you can rest assured. It is important to note that such tests should not be repeated multiple times within a single day to avoid unnecessary impact on the baby.
