Bakit umiiyak si baby during Newborn Screening? πΆπ©Έ
Normal lang po na umiyak ang baby during newborn screening, especially during the heel prick or blood extraction. Sa procedure po kasi, maliit na prick ang ginagawa sa heel ni baby para makakuha ng few drops of blood needed for the newborn screening tests.
π NGANUNG MOHILAK MAN GYUD SI BABY?π
The heel prick can cause brief discomfort or a stinging sensation.
Babies are more sensitive to touch and pain, kaya mabilis silang umiyak.
Sometimes, umiiyak din sila dahil sa pagkakahawak or pag-position sa kanila habang kinukuha ang blood sample.
Crying is actually a normal response and does not automatically mean na may problema kay baby.
πΈ Importante nga mahibalo ka, Mummy & Dadhie :
The discomfort is usually short-lived. Once the blood collection is finished and baby is comforted, most babies gradually calm down. You may breastfeed, cuddle, or do skin-to-skin contact afterward to help soothe your little one.
βSo, ayaw kabalaka, Mummy and Dadhie... If baby cries during newborn screening, it is usually a normal response to the brief discomfort of the heel prick. We understand that hearing your baby cry can be difficult, but this small procedure is an important step in checking your baby's health early.β ππ©ΈπΆ
