Signs That Baby Is in Pain
(HealthDay News) -- Young infants may cry a lot. And new parents may not know exactly what's wrong.
The University of Michigan Health System lists these warning signs that your new baby may be in pain:
- A more insistent cry that lasts longer than usual, or a cry that's higher in pitch.
- Silence doesn't always mean baby is fine. Very sick or premature babies may not have the energy to cry.
- Making unusual faces, such as wrinkling the brow, squeezing eyes closed, getting deep creases around the nose, grimacing or holding the mouth open.
- Stiff or tense posture, with limbs completely stretched out or pulled tight into the body. Babies may also wiggle or squirm, or be "floppy" as if they've lost muscle tone.
- Fussiness or irritability that can't be soothed or comforted.
- Not eating or not sleeping.
