Question

Why do newborns have two types of expressions? My child has been experiencing this for a while, and I’m hesitant to give them medicine. Please give me some advice from the doctor.

Answer

The standard for a baby is not to look at their facial expressions, but rather their eating, drinking milk, defecating, and sleeping. This should be fine. Every day, you can continue to hold your baby and observe. It’s common to see newborns with unusual expressions in life. Generally, these may be caused by pain or certain diseases in the body. Of course, there’s also a possibility of cerebral palsy. Parents should pay attention to every expression and movement of their baby to prevent cerebral palsy. If the infant is suffering from cerebral palsy, it is crucial to receive timely treatment; this is a better treatment method. As the disease progresses, treatment will become increasingly difficult.
