When to See a Doctor
Parents should consult a healthcare provider as soon as they notice typical symptoms of Prader-Willi syndrome in children. These include issues waking up, trouble feeding infants, floppiness when held, a lack of response to usual stimulation, quick weight gain, and the persistent seeking of foods. However, keep in mind that children with these behaviors do not necessarily have the condition. Make sure to tell the doctor all symptoms for a precise diagnosis and treatment plan. [4]
