Will crying baby affect health?
Is it harmful to let your baby cry all the time
No, the child will not be harmed. On the contrary, they will feel safe. Children feel safe when they know that everything is controlled by their parents and not by them. In addition, if you want your baby to feel safe, you should be consistent in your approach and try to arrange your baby's life strictly according to the work and rest schedule.
If you get nervous when your baby cries, your baby will soon learn who is in charge of the family. He will develop a habit of crying to get what he wants. But these children who gain control tend to feel insecure when they grow up. Why? Because they actually don’t know what they want or what is good for them. Their parents have not set boundaries for them, so they feel insecure.
In contrast, if the baby knows that whether he cries or not, his parents will take care of his needs at any time, he will feel safe, because although his attitude is repeated, the parents' actions will always be the same. consistent.
The final result is that babies who follow a schedule and can sleep until dawn will no longer cry when they wake up in the morning. Many babies who learn to sleep until dawn do not cry when they wake up in the morning, but start mumbling or making happy sounds. My babies sometimes wake up in the morning singing in their crib, waiting for family to pick them up. They had had a good night's sleep and knew their parents would be there to pick them up. I repeat, children feel safe when they know that everything is under the control of their parents, not them.
Why do babies cry
Dr. Danma said that some mothers do not breastfeed or are unable to breastfeed, but their babies are allergic to milk or any kind of milk powder, and such babies will cry. Don't stop until you eat the right food. Some babies cry non-stop and cannot sleep because of skin allergies and itchiness. Some babies are injured during birth, so they cry more easily and stay awake longer than normal babies. Some babies cry because they are wearing too much and are too hot, or they are wearing too little and are too cold. Some babies feel uncomfortable after rubbing oil on their bodies, so they cry. Some babies are not wanted when they are born. They seem to feel that they are not accepted. Such babies are unhappy and cannot sleep well. But the most common cause of babies crying is sleeping on their backs, which scares them.
If none of the above are the reasons why your baby cries and won't sleep, then remember that every baby is different and has different responses to pleasure and pain. Same as adults. We cannot say how long the baby should cry for, but crying is really important for the baby's development. The baby must cry. Crying hard can expand the lungs and give them full exercise.
So please don’t worry, you should regard crying as exercise for your baby. Crying will help exercise their lungs. The lungs of our three children are all healthy! If necessary, you can turn on a fan, dehumidifier, or air purifier to make a little noise to cover up your baby's cries so as not to disturb your family. What I do is, in the first few weeks of training my baby to sleep through the night, try to have the baby sleep in a room as far away from the family as possible (only I can hear the baby's cries), so that the family will not Being disturbed.
Many readers asked me whether hernia is caused by the baby crying too much. I checked the information on the Internet, and the 8 information I read insisted that crying will not cause hernia. Hernia is congenital. Even if the baby does not cry, the hernia still exists. It is only later that we find out that the baby has a hernia problem because of exertion or loud crying.
