I have a baby at home who seems to be less energetic and active than usual. He doesn't show much interest in playing or interacting. I'm wondering if this is a normal phase or if there's something I should be concerned about. What does it mean when a baby is listless?

Babies who exhibit lethargy or listlessness often seem to have very little or no energy at all.

Their behavior is characterized by drowsiness or sluggishness, making them appear less active than usual.

These infants may sleep for longer periods than what is considered normal for their age.

Waking them up for feedings can be particularly challenging, as they seem deeply asleep and difficult to rouse.

Even when they are awake, they may not display the usual alertness or attentiveness to their surroundings.
