1 Answer

Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years ago

A. Are they febrile seizures? If yes then they will usually cure and won't happen beyond 5 years of age. Don't panic when your baby has a febrile seizure. If it is the first time, then after the episode you should take the baby to the doctor. In future if baby gets a seizure, lay the baby on a soft bed and ensure the surroundings are safe without any objects which the baby could get hurt during her seizure. Lay the baby on her side, make sure she doesn't have anything in her mouth which can cause a choking hazard, don't feed anything to the baby while she is having seizures. Usually the seizures will subside in five to ten minutes. If it lasts longer you should immediately take the baby to the doctor or call for an ambulance. Notice how the baby behaves during seizure so you can let your pediatrician know when u consult him. If possible record it in ur mobile. After seizures it's natural for the baby to be unconscious or get to sleep for few minutes. Don't panic. Keep the room airy. After the first episode, Doctors will usually prescribe some tablet. Next time whenever the fever crosses 100 degree Fahrenheit doctor will ask u to give this medicine. This will reduce the possibility of seizures by fifty percent. Once your baby has febrile seizures make sure that everytime when your child gets fever it's under control and not reaching high temperatures. U can give sponge bathing to reduce the temperature. Always carry the tablet ur doctor prescribes along with u wherever u travel.
