Babies who are timid and easily frightened may be due to insecurity of infants or may be caused by calcium deficiency, for example. To address the different reasons, we can adopt the methods of pacifying infants or calcium supplementation.
1. Pacify infants: infants have an instinctive sense of self-protection, in a strange or uncomfortable environment will be insecure, which can be manifested as easily frightened and crying.
At this time, parents should try to appease the baby, can be held in the arms with both hands, the palm of the hand rhythmically gently pat the baby’s back. Parents should usually try to put the baby around, until it slowly familiar with the environment can be placed a little far away from the position.
2. Calcium supplement: If the effect of soothing the baby is poor, it is necessary to consider whether there is a calcium deficiency. Infants with calcium deficiency show symptoms of irritability due to increased excitability of the nervous system.
In this case, consult your doctor and take calcium carbonate and vitamin D as prescribed.
Infants are timid and easily startled. Parents should consult a doctor in time to avoid delays.
