Synopsis
Excerpt from Babyhood, Vol. 14: The Mother's Nursery Guide, Devoted to the Care of Children; December, 1897, to November, 1898
Excessive somnolence is seldom met with in young children. It is seen in grave diseases toward their unfavorable termination, being then known as coma. The mother is often anxious to know whether her child has sunk into this dangerous coma stupor or whether it is quietly sleeping. The attitude of the child, curled upon itself or with hands clasped above the head; the nat ural color and expression of the face; the soft regular breathing (with the rhythmical lifting of the bed - clothes when it is so gentle that it cannot be heard); the natural beat of the pulse under a finger slipped upon the wrist (it is supposed that every reader of babyhood knows how to feel the pulse of her child) - all these tell of normal sleep. And if on waking the child is bright and speaks as in health, no fear of excessive stupor remains.
