Anonymous question
Answer
Hello, there are 2 main reasons why babies startle when they sleep:
Benign causes (physiological reflexes because they are not used to the environment, noise, being put down unexpectedly. ..) is a very normal physiological phenomenon, it usually only happens for a few seconds and then disappears immediately. So you shouldn't worry too much. Pathological causes (due to gastric reflux, calcium deficiency, damage to the central nervous system...) you need to monitor to see if the condition is long and abnormal, you need to see a specialist doctor for advice. question. Thank you for submitting your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards!
