Two and a half year old baby cries all the time

Every change in the baby after birth is watched by the mother. Because many new mothers do not understand the baby's growth and development very well, sometimes their judgment of the baby's physical condition is not very accurate. From birth to adulthood, every day is very difficult for babies, and mothers worry about their babies growing up healthily. Many parents report that their two-and-a-half-year-old babies cry all the time. What's going on? Let's find out together~

1. No need to stop crying

I believe that many mothers feel conflicted and anxious when they see other children having fun while their own children cry over a trivial matter. Often their first reaction is to tell the children “Don’t cry, don’t cry”. Some even threaten the children “If you cry, I will beat you!”. Such reactions from parents often make children cry even harder. Even if the child stops crying because he is afraid of being beaten, it still cannot solve the problem of the child's crying reaction the next time he encounters a similar situation.

Mothers really shouldn't be in a hurry to stop their children from crying. For anyone, crying is a free way to vent emotions. If the child's crying really affects the people around him, you can take the child to a quiet place and let him calm down first.

When a mother finds that her child is about to burst into emotions, she can tell the child to take a deep breath together. The mother can demonstrate to the child, and the action can be made a little exaggerated. Usually after the child takes 5-6 deep breaths, he will find that he is not as angry as before.

If the child can fully understand the expression of adults and see that the child is about to explode, you can let the child describe his anger and ask the child, "Are you very angry? This is a pen. Can you draw how angry you are to your mother?" Usually the child will scribble on the paper, and his emotions will be much calmer after drawing!

For children who are able to express their needs, ask them, "What made you so unhappy? What can you do to make yourself feel better?" For example, if a child’s toy is damaged by other children, the child will insist on compensation before he forgives the other party.

The mother can suggest that the other parent give a certain degree of cooperation, and then communicate with the other parent behind the scenes to explain the reasons for her actions, which will usually gain the other parent's understanding.

Even after taking the above measures, your child may still not be able to overcome the habit of crying, but at least he or she will know some methods and techniques to control emotions.

2. Editor’s words

If a baby cries easily, it is related to the baby's lack of self-confidence and self-esteem. Parents should cultivate the baby's self-confidence and self-esteem in daily life and solve problems through their own abilities instead of crying. When your baby cries, there is no need to stop her, let her cry for a while; then use clever methods to stop her crying, such as deep breathing and drawing.
