If Nurse is assessing newborn for manifestations of hypoglycemia. nurse should expect Jitteriness in newborn.

Tremors or jitteriness are examples of mild hypoglycemia symptoms. Oral feeds – If a newborn has established hypoglycemia and is at risk for hypoglycemia but has no symptoms or just moderate symptoms, oral feeding is the first intervention (eg, jitteriness). Historically, among diabetics, elevated blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, has been linked to rage or melancholy, while low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, has been linked to jitteriness. A brief, self-limited phase of relatively low blood glucose occurs in the first two hours of life in the healthy, term infant. Infants are typically symptom-free at this period. Routine glucose testing is not advised due to this temporary drop's physiological nature. Infants who are susceptible to pathologic hypoglycemia should be targeted for screening.
