In front of the baby's crying, there is really no mother who can calm down....

Are you hungry? Is it uncomfortable somewhere? Is it sick? For a small baby, all needs can only be expressed by crying.

If you can't find the reason for crying, a crying baby will really make people worry and collapse.

Selina, a new mother, has collapsed because of the baby's crying.

Recently, Selina's sister Ren Rongxuan revealed her sister's confinement when she participated in the event.

Selina, who is currently cultivating in the confinement center, is recovering well, not in a hurry to lose weight, not in a hurry to come back, everything is based on the premise of her own physical recovery.

But when a new mother takes care of a small baby, there will always be times when panic and collapse.

The moment that broke Selina the most was when the baby cried.

Watching her baby cry until she couldn't stop, Selina was very flustered: what should I do now? What to do?

Selina, who has no experience, can only ask for help.

For new mothers, everything that takes care of their baby needs to be slowly groped, and so does baby crying.

Little babies, any needs and discomforts can only be expressed by crying.

If you can't find the reason, the baby can't stop crying, which will really make people very anxious and collapse.

"After becoming a mother, I am most afraid of children crying"

Every baby cries, but not all parents understand: Why does the baby cry?

On Zhihu and Weibo, there are many mothers who collapse because of their babies crying.

A mother said: Children crying is often easy to make a mother's mentality collapse, hate the child can not speak, hate herself for having nothing to do...

Indeed, when facing the baby crying and fussing, the heart is really tormented.

After Tang Yan gave birth to her daughter, she also panicked because of the baby's crying.

Tang Yan said: The baby will definitely cry, but at first I really can't understand what that crying means, so I can only quickly pick up the baby to see if there is any need.

Check the diaper, find that there is no urine, and quickly put the baby on the diaper.

Feeding, not hungry, so put down the baby, not long after, crying, and quickly hugging, cycling every day.

So much so that when she heard the baby's cry later, Tang Yan's heart would tremble, worried whether the baby was peeing and whether there was discomfort somewhere.

This is probably the feeling of all new mothers.

So why is the baby crying? How should Mom and Dad appease them? Today, the pregnant mother will talk about it in detail.

Crying is your baby's way of expressing their needs

Mostly normal

Mothers can rest assured that babies cry as soon as they are born, which is normal and part of their baby's growth.

It is normal for babies to cry for 2-3 hours a day during the first 6 weeks, more than ever during the first trimester, and more in the late afternoon or evening.

Crying usually peaks in 6-8 weeks, decreases at 3 to 4 months, and decreases in most babies by 4 to 5 months of age.

In most cases, crying is not because of a medical problem, but because the baby is in need.

Common causes of crying in babies include:

●I'm hungry.

●Too hot or too cold.

●Scared, tired, and want to sleep.

●Uncomfortable, wet diapers.

● There is no particular reason.

For the above reasons, understanding the baby's crying and meeting the baby's needs can soothe the baby.

But if the baby cries a lot, crying for more than 3 hours a day and more than 3 days a week, the baby who lasts at least 3 weeks may have colic, which usually begins at 2-5 weeks of age and ends at 3-4 months of age.

Different cries indicate that babies have different needs, and parents need to be able to identify them correctly.

③

Not every cry is hungry

Different cries represent different needs of your baby

First: the baby is hungry - the cry is short, the voice is not high, but it is high and low

Hungry babies may begin to cry softly and slowly, louder and louder, and more rhythmic.

Signs of hunger in the baby: sucking fists, turning his head to find the breast, sucking his lips.

Respond correctly: Feeding your baby in time and responding early can avoid prolonged crying, unless you have just fed your baby and you can be sure that your baby is not hungry.

Second: the baby is angry - the crying will be much more intense

Picky and angry cries start and stop suddenly, and may also go up and down in volume, and if you ignore it, the crying may increase the volume.

Correct response: Do not hesitate to comfort him, crying may indicate that the baby is uncomfortable, or it may just indicate that the baby wants to be held, and respond to the baby in time.

Third: the baby is in pain (colic and flatulence) - the cry is louder and the pitch is higher

A baby in pain may cry suddenly, and this cry may be sharp and harsh, and each cry is loud, short, harsh, and if you hear a painful cry, respond immediately.

Look for discomfort or scratched fingers on the diaper, see if there is hair tangling around your baby, look for signs of colic, if your baby's belly is hard or his back arched, it may be flatulence, and if he cries and, see a doctor.

Manifestations of baby colic: clenched fists, back arch, tight tummy, knees reaching for the chest and fart, pay attention, crying for too long will make the baby take in more air, which will make the baby more uncomfortable.

Correct response: burp your baby after feeding, gently massage your baby's back and abdomen, and discuss with the doctor how to relieve colic.

Fourth: the baby pees - the crying appears suddenly, sometimes urgently

If you urinate and pull it in time, if you don't change it in time, the baby will be very uncomfortable and will protest, especially when the baby's skin is very sensitive.

Coping method: change the baby's diaper in time, wash the butt in time after poop, apply buttock ointment, and change the diaper frequently, otherwise it will lead to red butt.

Fifth: the baby is uncomfortable – crying is not the same as usual

If your baby cries differently than normal, it may be a sign of discomfort or teething, watch for symptoms such as runny nose, cough, fever, lethargy, decreased activity, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation.

How to cope: If your baby keeps crying, shows any signs of illness, and has a temperature of more than 38 degrees Celsius, be sure to see a doctor immediately.

Sixth: The baby is too cold or too hot – very uncomfortable crying

Too cold or too hot can also cause your baby to cry, touch your baby's tummy or neck to see if it's too hot or too cold. Don't be misled by the temperature of your baby's hands or feet, it's normal for newborn babies to have cold hands and feet.

Cope: If your baby is cold, raise the room temperature and add clothes. If your baby is too hot, take off some clothes and/or change into lighter clothes and/or lower the temperature in the room.

Seventh: Identify abnormal crying – seek medical attention.

Some cries may tell you that something is seriously wrong, an abnormal cry can be very high, up to three times the baby's normal cry, it can also be an unusually low-key sustained high or low cry that may indicate a serious illness, if the baby is crying in a way that sounds strange to you, call the doctor.
