Question
A ten-day-old baby has been waking up every ten minutes for three consecutive days, then falling asleep again, with the same pattern during both day and night. The baby will cry softly for a while, then sleep for a few more minutes, and this continues throughout the night. Is the baby uncomfortable? I checked the blood, but I can’t understand the results.
Answer
The baby’s urine test results show a decrease in white blood cells, but this is not significant if there are no specific clinical diagnosis symptoms. For a ten-day-old baby, if these symptoms occur again at night and the baby’s mental state and bowel movements are not disturbed, it is considered discomfort caused by intestinal bloating, which can be relieved by massaging the abdomen to promote flatulence . These are the suggestions for this issue, hoping they will be helpful to you, and wishing you a quick recovery!
