General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, it appears to be the psychological problem developed due to the feeling of not being treated as before, due to pregnancy. If possible consult a pediatric psychologist for treatment.
I advise you to show the same love and effection as before to him, and to take him to the lap at least once every day, and other family members should look after him continuously. Not to scold him in any moment. Thank you.
