Common Health Problems in Newborns
The best and the only way newborns express themselves is by crying. They cry to be fed, held, or dressed in a clean diaper. Often, they cry for no apparent reason. So, you just need to flow with the tide by devising different tactics to make him stop. You can hold him, talk or sing to him until he stops. You cannot “spoil” a baby this age by giving him too much attention. If this doesn’t work, wrap him snugly in a blanket.Over time, you baby’s crying pattern should become familiar so much so that you’re able to decode their request easily. However, you should be able to differentiate if the sound becomes peculiar. For example, shrieks of pain or persistent crying for an unusual length of time could mean a medical problem. Call your child’s healthcare provider for assistance.
