Specializes in Pediatrics

See A Doctor NOW: These are very serious symptoms pointing to malnourishment and possible anemia which are life-threatening conditions. It is unknown if baby has seen a doctor since no other info is given. There can be many causes such as infection, congenital defects, genetic syndromes, and more. Your baby needs URGENT medical care. See a doctor NOW or go to an emergency room NOW for diagnosis and treatment.
