Care Advice for Normal Crying or Colic

1. What You Should Know About Crying:
   • Normal Crying: All babies cry when they are hungry. Also, the normal baby has 1 to 2 hours of unexplained cryingeach day. It is scattered throughout the day. As long as they are happy and content when they are not crying, this is normal.
   • Colic: Some babies are very hard to comfort. Some babies also cry a lot (over 3 hours per day). If growing normally and have a normal medical exam, the crying is called colic. Remind yourself that colic is due to your baby's temperament. It has nothing to do with your parenting or any medical disease.
   • Here is some care advice that should help both types of crying.
2. Feedings:
   • For formula-fed babies, feed if more than 2 hours since the last feeding. For breast-fed babies, feed if more than 1½ hours since the last feeding.
   • Be careful not to feed your baby every time she cries. Some babies cry because of a bloated stomach from overfeeding. Let your baby decide when she's had enough milk. (For example, she turns her head away.) Don't encourage your baby to finish what's in the bottle.
   • Caffeine. If breastfeeding, decrease your caffeine intake. Limit your coffee, tea and energy drinks to 2 servings per day. That's 2 cups or 16 ounces (480 ml).
3. Hold and Comfort for Crying:
   • Hold and try to calm your baby whenever he cries without a reason. Hold your baby flat to help them relax and go to sleep.
   • Rock your child in a rocking chair, in a cradle or while standing. Many babies calm best with rapid tiny movements like vibrations.
   • Place in a windup swing or vibrating chair.
   • Take for a stroller ride, outdoors or indoors.
   • Do anything else you think may be comforting. Examples are using a pacifier, massage, or warm bath.
4. Swaddle your Baby in a Blanket for Crying:
   • Swaddling is the most helpful technique for calming crying babies. It also keeps your baby from waking up with a startle reflex.
   • Use a big square blanket and the "burrito-wrap" technique:
   • Step 1: Have the arms straight at the sides.
   • Step 2: Pull the left side of the blanket over the upper body and tuck.
   • Step 3: Fold the bottom up with the knees a little flexed. Safe swaddling keeps the legs in a straddle position.
   • Step 4: Pull the right side over the upper body and tuck.
   • Don't cover your baby's head or overheat your baby.
   • Read the book (or view the DVD),"The Happiest Baby on the Block". Both products are authored by Dr. Harvey Karp. It is the best resource on how to calm fussy babies.
5. White Noise for Crying:
   • Swaddling works even better when paired with a white noise on a loud volume. Examples are a CD, vacuum cleaner, fan or other constant sound.
   • Keep the white noise on any time your baby is crying.
   • When your baby is awake and not crying, keep your baby unwrapped. Turn off the white noise. Reason: So she can get used to the normal sounds of your home. (For details, view Dr. Karp's DVD.)
6. Cry to Sleep:
   • If you've tried comforting and your baby isn't hungry, put him in the crib. Let your baby cry himself to sleep.
   • For some overtired babies, this is the only answer.
   • Swaddle your baby snugly. Place him on his back in his crib. Turn on some white noise and leave the room.
   • If 3 hours have passed since napping, you know your baby needs to sleep.
7. Encourage Nighttime Sleep (Rather Than Daytime Sleep):
   • Try to keep your child from sleeping too much during the daytime.
   • If your baby has napped 2 hours or longer, gently wake him up. Play with or feed your baby, depending on his needs. This will lessen the amount of time your baby is awake at night.
8. Warning: Never Shake a Baby
   • It can cause bleeding on the brain. Severe brain damage can happen in a few seconds.
   • Never leave your baby with someone who is immature or has a bad temper.
   • If you are frustrated, put your baby down in a safe place.
   • Call or ask a friend or relative for help.
   • Take a break until you calm down.
9. What to Expect:
   • The right technique should start to reduce the crying. You may have to try several things before finding the best method.
   • The crying should start to decrease to about 1 hour per day.
   • Colic gets better after 2 months of age. Most often, it is gone by 3 months.
10. Call Your Doctor If:
• Your baby starts to look or act abnormal
• Cries nonstop for more than 2 hours
• Your child can't be consoled using this advice
• You think your child needs to be seen
• Your child becomes worse

Causes of Unexplained Crying

• Hungry Baby. The most common reason babies cry is because they are hungry. They stop crying at the onset of feeding. By the end of the feeding, they are happy.
• Sleepy Baby. The second reason babies cry is they need sleep. They need their parent to put them in a comfortable position. It may be swaddled and on their back. Then they fuss a little and fall asleep.
• Fed Too Much. Some babies cry because of a bloated stomach from overfeeding. Unlike gas, too much milk can cause discomfort that lasts a short time.
• Caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant that can cause increased crying and trouble falling asleep. Breastfeeding mothers need to limit their caffeine intake.
• Clothing. Being too hot or too cold can make a baby cry. So can clothing that is too tight.
• Dirty Diaper. Stool is very irritating to the skin. If not cleaned off, it can cause pain and burning.
• Colic. Colic is the main cause of recurrent crying during the early months. All babies have some normal fussy crying every day. When this occurs over 3 hours per day, it's called colic. When they are not crying, they are happy.
• Pain (Serious). Painful causes include an earache, mouth ulcers, or a raw diaper rash. An ulcer on tip of penis may also cause pain and crying. These babies cry a lot and are not happy when they are not crying. They need to see a doctor to make a diagnosis. Fever in this age group is serious until proven otherwise. Shaken baby syndrome is a concern.

Myths About Causes of Crying

• Not Due to Gas. Gas passing through normal intestines does not cause pain or crying. All crying babies pass lots of gas. Their stomachs also make lots of gassy noises. The gas comes from swallowed air. The gas is normal. It does not become trapped nor cause any pains. That's why burping a baby doesn't help the crying. Blaming gas is a myth.

Definition of Colic

• A lot of crying once or twice per day
• Usually consolable when held and comforted
• Acts normal (happy, contented) between bouts of crying
• The baby is getting enough to eat and is not hungry
• The baby is not sick
• Onset most often before 2 weeks of age
• Usually goes away by 3 months of age (sometimes up to 4 months)

the patience of a mother is a good fruit to make your child more sweet when it feels adult.
