Newborn baby crying

Crying is a common thing in the life of newborns. Many parents nowadays have a deep understanding of this. It is mainly because newborns do not know how to express their emotions in the early stages, and usually they do so in one way, which is crying. In many cases, I am in a state of crying. But sometimes some parents will find that their newborn babies cry very hard and won’t stop. Then we have to consider what causes it. So what are the possible reasons for newborns to cry so hard?

The baby cries so hard and it breaks his heart. What's going on?

The most likely possibility is that the baby has colic, which causes constant pain to the baby, so the baby will cry heartbreakingly. How to identify intestinal colic?

1. Since babies cannot speak, they can only express their discomfort by crying. Babies with colic generally cry incessantly. Once the baby has a stomachache, it is very difficult to soothe the baby. They cry many times a day and for a long time, and they are not at ease to suck milk. While crying, he would also kick his legs continuously.

2. The abdomen is bulging and you can hear gurgling sounds in the abdomen. This is also a common symptom of colic in babies.

3. Babies with colic will suffer from gastrointestinal discomfort and will fart frequently.

4. Babies with colic will have particularly erratic sleep. After waking up in the middle of the night, no amount of coaxing will help. Only when the baby’s stomach pain is gone can he fall asleep peacefully.

What to do if the baby cries so hard that it breaks your heart

1. Breastfeeding is the most effective way to soothe the baby. When the baby sucks milk, the milk will enter the stomach and expel the air in the stomach, thereby relieving colic. However, many babies have colic and do not suck milk. In this case, mothers can try other methods.

2. Put the baby in the cradle or give the baby a warm bath. This can have a soothing effect. Especially a warm bath can make the baby feel very comfortable and in a much better mood. Isn’t it the same for adults taking a hot bath, haha.

3. The side sleeping position puts a certain amount of pressure on the child's abdomen and can also relieve abdominal pain to a certain extent. However, you should not let your baby sleep on his side often, as it can easily cause a flat head.

4. The mother is also very important during breastfeeding. She should pay attention to her diet and avoid eating spicy food. She should try to eat light food, so that the milk the baby sucks will be more nutritious and delicious.

5. Massage. Gently rubbing the baby's belly in a clockwise direction can help expel gas from the intestines. The specific steps are as follows. After the intestinal air is expelled, the baby will feel much more comfortable. You can also give the baby more such massages at ordinary times, because the baby will inhale some air when sucking milk.

The most likely reason why a baby cries so hard is that he has colic. Colic will make the baby extremely painful, so the baby will cry so hard. As a parent of a young baby, it is best for you to take timely measures to deal with it.
