Dream - Many myths are believed about pregnancy. One of them is that if the pregnant mother's cravings are not fulfilled, the baby born later will drool a lot or produce a lot of saliva.
"How is the fact? Quoted from Klikdokter, drooling from the mouth, also known as ngeces in babies, is a normal occurrence. This condition is often found in babies aged 3-6 months."
"Saliva or saliva itself actually plays an important role for babies. For example, maintaining moisture in the mouth, cleaning up leftover food and drinks, and protecting teeth. Excessive drooling in babies does not always indicate a problem. It could be part of their oral development. Actually, there are several causes of excessive drooling in babies that parents should also be aware of. What are they? Let's find out."
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "Baby who drools is actually a normal condition. This situation usually occurs when the baby is 3 months old because the salivary glands start to activate."
When they get older, babies start putting their hands in their mouths, and this will stimulate excessive saliva production. Well, because they don't have optimal swallowing abilities yet, babies actually release that saliva.
Babies begin to experience the growth of their first teeth at the age of 6-8 months. This can also cause excessive drooling in babies. The growth of teeth causes pain and swelling of the gums.
This is what will stimulate saliva production in babies. So, when the little one starts teething, they usually drool excessively, and there's no need to worry, Mom and Dad.
Inflammation in the mouth can occur due to canker sores, fungus on the tongue or mouth, and other factors. If the cause of inflammation in the mouth can be effectively addressed, the production of baby's saliva can decrease.
Sore throat can trigger excessive production of baby's saliva. This condition will also make the little one reluctant to swallow their saliva because it feels painful. This causes saliva to accumulate in the mouth cavity, so the little one will drool.
Nerve disorders such as cerebral palsy can cause excessive drooling in infants. This occurs because the condition disrupts the swallowing reflex in the little one. Cerebral palsy is a neurological disorder primarily involving gross motor function. This disorder is caused by damage to the brain.
Spitting up a lot can be a symptom of GERD in babies. In addition to producing a lot of saliva, babies with reflux problems may also vomit, cough, have difficulty eating, choke, and be fussy.
"In general, drooling in babies is a normal condition and can 'heal' by itself. However, it is necessary to be cautious if it occurs continuously and is accompanied by other symptoms. Source: KlikDokter"
