What to do if your baby suddenly cries while sleeping

During the growth and development process of babies, many small problems will arise. When babies have some problems, it will make mothers feel very nervous. Many babies will suddenly wake up and cry when they are asleep. Many mothers don’t know what causes this in their babies, and they don’t know how to deal with it. In fact, when babies are sleeping, they should pay attention to the sleeping environment, which is a very important element for their sleep. Now let’s talk about what to do if your baby suddenly cries while sleeping.

1. Sucking

Whether it is the mother's breast, the bottle for drinking milk, the pacifier for comfort, or the baby's own fingers, sucking can always have a soothing effect, but the mother should disinfect the bottles and pacifiers at ordinary times, and keep the baby's fingers clean to avoid diseases from entering the body through the mouth.

2. Massage

Various forms of patting and massage can help calm your baby. Try patting your baby's back while he or she sits upright on your shoulder. But don't massage your baby's tummy until he's four weeks old, and avoid the spine. When massaging your baby, avoid the spine and avoid using nut oils such as almond oil. While massaging your baby, talk to your baby more often, which can effectively promote your baby's development and enhance the parent-child relationship.

3. Music

Rhythmic sounds or music can help soothe a newborn. Even the hum of a washing machine or vacuum cleaner can help calm the baby down. Listening to music can help cultivate a baby's optimistic personality.

4. Exercise

Rock your baby gently in your arms or in a cradle, or push him in a stroller. You can comfort him with gentle hugs and soft singing.

5. Fresh air

Take your baby for a walk, because even if the crying doesn't stop, being outdoors won't seem so bad.

6. Flatulence

Some babies feel better after burping, so try sitting your baby upright on your shoulder and patting his back.

7. Take a bath

A warm bath can immediately calm some babies, but be aware that this can have the opposite effect.

8. Lullaby

Take your baby to a quieter room and soothe him or her with gentle cuddles and soft lullabies.
