How Do I Know If My Baby Has A Concussion

However, if your child is showing any signs of a concussion, you’ll need to get medical attention right away, especially if they:

• are vomiting
• have lost consciousness for more than a minute or two
• are difficult to wake up
• have a seizure

Repeated vomiting is another possible physical symptom of a concussion in a baby. Keep in mind that spitting up, which is very common in infants, differs from vomiting. Vomiting is characteristically more forceful than spitting up. Diagnosing a concussion is challenging in babies, even for seasoned healthcare professionals.
