In the daily process of raising a baby, parents should pay attention to observing the health status of the baby. After the baby shows abnormal symptoms, the mother should not take it lightly, but actively diagnose the cause and take timely treatment measures. Some babies have a faster heartbeat, what's wrong with a three-year-old baby having a faster heartbeat?
There are many reasons that can cause a three-year-old baby's heart rate to increase. For example, during a fever, the baby's metabolism will accelerate, and the heart rate will be faster than usual. Under normal circumstances, a baby's heart rate is 100-120 beats per minute. If the actual heart rate exceeds 120 beats per minute, it indicates that the baby's heart rate is too fast. At this point, parents should promptly measure the baby's temperature and check for any signs of fever.
When a baby's emotions are unstable, their heart rate may also change. For example, when a baby is angry and cries incessantly, their body needs more blood oxygen during crying. In order to meet the body's blood oxygen needs, the baby's heart rate will accelerate. Therefore, when parents judge whether their baby's heartbeat is normal, they should also refer to their baby's emotions.
If the baby's heartbeat is consistently fast, parents should promptly check the baby's heart health, and it cannot be ruled out that it is caused by heart disease. For example, congenital coronary artery occlusion or other congenital heart diseases can cause a baby's heart rate to be different from others.
