Children are inevitably prone to some illnesses after birth due to environmental factors and various problems, among which the probability of infantile eczema and infantile pneumonia is very high. Eczema can be slowly cured, but pneumonia is often acute, and parents are more concerned. So, is it normal for babies with pneumonia to feel drowsy?
In fact, as long as newborns have not yet reached four or five months, most of them are in a long-term sleep state. Baby drowsiness is not directly related to pneumonia, but if a child has pneumonia and the drowsiness is more severe than usual, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and diagnose the cause of drowsiness. Under normal circumstances, a child who is one or two months old should sleep for fifteen to sixteen hours. If it exceeds this limit, more attention should be paid.
Children who suffer from pneumonia often have heavy breathing sounds, and breathing is also more difficult. The breathing frequency is much faster than normal, and some babies may even have some wheezing. They are prone to spitting milk when drinking milk due to insufficient oxygen intake and other reasons. Parents should pay more attention and judge if the child's breathing sounds are not correct.
Severe pneumonia can cause a child's body temperature to rise, and at two months old, the child's breathing rate can even reach 60 times per minute. Parents can place their ears close to the child and hear their heavy breathing clearly. Moreover, children are often more prone to crying and having trouble falling asleep at this time, and require timely medical treatment.
