A. Pneumonia in a three-month-old baby can be caused by several factors, including: 1. Infections: Viral Infections: Common viruses like respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza, or adenovirus can lead to pneumonia. Bacterial Infections: Bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae or Staphylococcus aureus can cause pneumonia. 2. Aspiration: Babies may inhale food, liquid, or saliva into their lungs, leading to aspiration pneumonia. 3. Weak Immune System: Infants, especially those with weakened immune systems or premature babies, are more susceptible to infections. 4. Environmental Factors: Exposure to smoke, pollutants, or sick individuals can increase the risk of respiratory infections. 5. Underlying Conditions: Conditions such as congenital heart defects or chronic lung disease can predispose infants to pneumonia. Symptoms to Watch For: Coughing Difficulty breathing or rapid breathing Fever Wheezing Poor feeding or lethargy Action Steps: If you suspect pneumonia or notice any concerning symptoms in your baby, consult a pediatrician immediately for proper evaluation and treatment. Early intervention is crucial for managing pneumonia effectively.
