Child experts discuss causes and effects of shaken baby syndrome
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
The American Academy of Pediatrics addresses the dangers of shaken baby syndrome (SBS), which often occurs when caregivers are frustrated by an infant's crying.
Shaken baby syndrome (SBS) results in serious injuries after violently shaking an infant or toddler.
The child becomes injured because he doesn't have the muscle support to hold his head up.
SBS usually happens when a caregiver shakes a baby out of frustration, usually when a baby is crying.
Take a deep breath and count to 10.
Call your pediatrician to ensure there arent medical reasons for the crying child.
