Question
A 6-month-old baby cannot lift their head, can roll over, has normal appetite, and has no other abnormalities, but sometimes shakes. How can you determine if the child has Down syndrome?
Answer
A baby’s crying and fussiness after birth may be due to a lack of sunlight exposure, vitamin D deficiency, or fever caused by colds, as well as gastrointestinal discomfort. These symptoms alone cannot confirm Down syndrome, and a DNA test is required. It is recommended to supplement the child with vitamin AD and observe the situation.
