The mother reports that whenever she tries to breastfeed the infant, he begins to sweat and grunt after a few minutes and stops feeding. The patient was born via normal vaginal delivery at 38 weeks gestation to a 35-year-old mother. The infant's mother did not receive prenatal care. Family history is unremarkable for hereditary disorders. Temperature is 37°C (98.6°F), pulse is 160/min, respirations are 30/min and blood pressure is 90/50 mmHg. Physical examination shows a single crease on both palms, a gap between the first two toes and prominent epicanthal folds.
