What Causes A High Pitched Cry?

my baby is 3 months old , or a week shy of it. she never ever cries unless she s hungry and it s not her normal cry - she s been having high pitched - what seems like painful cries, and she will wake up abruptly seeming very upset from her sleep. she seems to get more upset when we take her blanket off, but she s sweating ? she doesn t feel hot at all, so idk what to do?

Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi,

Sometimes during irritation - babies do this. The other possibilities are hunger pangs and acute CNS infection. But please get it checked by her pediatrician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
