The special bond between a mother and her child needs no introduction as it has always mesmerized the human race since long with its incredible elements. Especially when the child is a baby, without having learned verbal communication or when the baby is a newborn without even signs and gestures; mothers still understand the needs of their babies and Mother Nature has absorbed that communication inherent in both.

A small child may have various requirements, such as hunger, sleepiness, irritability due to wet diapers, colicky pains, a sense of security, an airy stomach, etc. Since at this age they do not learn to express their requirements, it is essential to make an extra effort for mothers to decipher them. Especially in the first four weeks of a baby’s life, it is all the more chaotic as the beginning of communication in a long-term relationship. New mothers and fathers may worry when the baby cries without knowing the concrete reason behind it. However, it is important to understand that crying is babies’ only means of communication and they cry for better and for worse. Although it may seem ridiculous, babies cry even if it is not a worrying situation.

In fact, medical professionals consider crying to be a neurological phase that babies go through. The crying period of the baby at its peak is generally between 4 and 8 weeks and gradually decreases towards the end of the year, that is, around 12 weeks. Until then, it is nothing short of a feat for a new mother to understand the types of crying and the tips to pacify the child according to her requirements. Isn’t it amazing to know that babies cry to get their parents’ attention? They expect a response from the mother and can we stop responding when the little souls demand attention? Well, it’s hard to ignore and it doesn’t make sense!

The first impression a parent has when a baby cries is hunger. But it may not necessarily be that. Initially, the caregiver may feed the baby, complete the burping task, change the diaper, put the baby to sleep, hold the baby on the lap, etc. there is a trial and error basis. It must be one of these reasons. If the baby calms down, you should be appreciated for decoding it correctly. If not, try and try to do the following things.

unscramble the tears:

· Sing a lullaby since babies do not sleep alone even if they are sleepy. Some babies want to be put to sleep. And we have to follow their order because of the kind of adorable creatures they are.

They can be comforted with a rocking action in the cradle or in a rocking chair or in the arms of the parents. This probably makes them feel like they are being cared for.

· A good warm bath can calm the baby if he is irritated. Many babies enjoy a bath while few are afraid. If so, try another trick!

Many babies stop crying instantly when offered a pacifier.

Take the baby for a walk. They explore the world more than we think. Help them in their exploration. If walking doesn’t follow, try driving instead.

· Try the football position, with his body on your arm. They love this gesture and sometimes this works magically.

If any of these tricks have worked, congratulations!! If the baby continues to cry, it does not mean that you have failed as a parent. Try to be more and more creative in getting closer to the baby as he offers you comfort. One or the other works for sure!!
