My baby is IDM baby... he born on 23 aug 2022. He was taken to nicu where ultrasounds were done on brain, heart, and kidneys.. That was working ok. Brain has no anomalies but his cry was shrill so doctor said he is cerebral irritated (kind if fits but subtle).. He was given electrolytes, zinc, magnesium and calcium syrup also levipil syrup.. after that he working ok. his condition is stable. I want to know what is cerebral irritability? is it treatable? will he b ok in future? are these fits permanent? is there any chance of getting them back when he grows?

Is there any delay in cry after birth, perinatal insult? Go for metabolic screen. Cerebral Irritability means some kind of chemical, infection are stimulating cerebral cortex, part of brain which causes seizure. Usually response well with Levipil like medicine. Hope you understood.
