Why does the baby cry while feeding?

People say that taking care of a baby is a very hard thing, especially for mothers. Babies have not yet formed complete thinking abilities. At this time, they can only babbling or crying to gain the attention of their parents. It is very common for babies to cry while feeding. Parents are helpless and don’t know what to do. Let’s take a look at why babies cry while feeding.

1. The digestive system of babies under one month old is not fully developed, so their stools are unformed, but it is not a big deal if the frequency and amount of stools are not large. Spitting up is normal. Crying while feeding is because you did not feed him on time and in the right amount. He is crying because he is too hungry. There is no fixed amount of food for feeding a baby. As long as he eats, you can feed him. Babies under one month old sleep more than 20 hours a day. If the child cries all day long, you should go to the pediatric department of the hospital.

2. The first is that there is too much milk and the baby has no time to swallow it, which will cause the baby to choke, refuse to drink milk, and then cry loudly. The baby will use his tummy to push, with his head and feet tilted back, and will struggle when he is fed, with his face turning red. I don't want to drink anymore. If there is no rush to breastfeed, consider other situations first. The second is insufficient milk or slow milk flow, which makes it difficult and strenuous for the baby to suck, so the baby will cry anxiously. There is no need to control it with your hands. If the baby gets anxious and tries too hard, he will swallow air and then choke. The third reason is that the posture you hold him in is uncomfortable, so he will struggle and just cry and refuse to drink milk. The fourth possibility is that the baby may have something growing in his mouth, and it hurts when he feeds. You can try changing your hand or position first, lay the baby flat on the bed, let him face right, and then feed the baby on his side, putting some tissues or towels underneath to avoid getting the bed wet. You can also try squeezing the milk into a bottle for him to drink and observe his movements.

From the above introduction, if we want to eliminate the phenomenon of babies crying while feeding, we must understand the reasons why babies cry while feeding. Therefore, the above explains the reasons for this phenomenon. I hope that parents, especially mothers, will pay attention to this problem. They should not increase the size of the breast just because the child is crying, etc. This is not good for the child's psychological growth.
