Not only is severely shaking a baby illegal, it can kill the baby. It also may cause some serious head injuries or bone injuries. Since the baby is still developing everything is still fragile.
i think you meant what happens if you shake your baby, but anyways, if you shake your baby it can get brain damage and die.
It is not shaking baby it is shaken baby.
No. The type of shaking in an earthquake is not the same as the type needed to cause shaken baby syndrome.
brain damage, neck damage, broken bones and even death
The cause of the brain, neck, and spine damage that can result from shaken baby syndrome is brute force. The violent shaking of a baby by a much stronger adult conveys a tremendous amount of energy to the infant.
Shaking baby syndrome
I am sitting in first year psychology in the University of Winnipeg. It is impossible as a human being to generate enough force to damage or even harm a babies brain. The only way to kill a baby by shaking it would be to put it in a machine, such as a paint mixer, which could accelerate and decelerate fast enough to cause the brain to be damaged.
Well babies can suddenly die in other ways too, whereas shaking baby syndrome requires there to be shaking of the baby.
The eyes can also be damaged by the explosive energy of shaking. Retinal damage occur in 50-80% of cases. The damage can be so severe as to permanently blind an infant.
The baby can have severe brain damage for the rest of their life. They may become blind, or they could have motor impairment (i.e. cerebral palsey) and they may have some cognitive impairments.
They eventually get quiet
its about 2 to 9mths,
