Question
“What should I do when a baby cries after being scared?”
Answer
“After a scare, most children show signs of listlessness, loss of appetite; some may have restless nights, insomnia, or frequent nightmares or talking in their sleep. Some may cry loudly, starting and stopping abruptly. After being scared, babies often refuse to breastfeed, become drowsy, or cry restlessly. Older children may even experience symptoms of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations.”
