It is important to note that newborns are not yet equipped with a strong immune system capable of fighting off or bacterial infections. In order to prevent infection, parents should limit their contact with other people during the first few years of life.
It’s common for babies to get sick during this time. A bacterial meningitis is a dangerous condition for a newborn and may require immediate hospitalization. A change in the baby’s energy level and behavior is one of the more noticeable side effects of bacterial infection.
Infants may start to appear lazy and torpid. The child may not want to be encouraged or develop a disorganized look in their eyes. You will find it difficult to get them out of the home.
