My baby was born prematurely. He seems to get scared when he hears a humming sound and starts moving up and down very fast on the sofa. He also appears anxious. Is this normal, or should I consult a doctor?
Premature babies can be more sensitive to sounds and may startle or move suddenly, which can be normal due to an immature nervous system. However, if your baby frequently becomes very scared, moves quickly, or appears anxious, it is best to consult a doctor or a paediatrician. The doctor can check your baby?s development and rule out any neurological or sensory issues. Keeping the environment calm and avoiding sudden loud sounds may also help.
