Question
What is the normal blood sugar level for newborns?
Answer
If a newborn’s whole blood sugar level is below 2.2, it is considered hypoglycemia, and above 7, it is considered hyperglycemia. If the blood glucose level measured is above 8.4, it is also considered hyperglycemia. This information is usually indicated on the test report. Your baby’s brain hypoxia is due to improper blood sugar control in the mother during pregnancy.
