Sometimes it is hard to decipher what the infant is telling you. They only have one way of communicating their feelings which is crying. A newborn cry is an impulse for him to convey a signal and get hold of the attention of the caregiver that he is in need of something. Though it is disturbing or sometimes irritating your baby’s call should be attended immediately to make them feel secured. It may be because he may be hungry, his diaper is soaking, tiredness, or boredom. Another reason is because of colic. Many mothers worry over this and they see it as a major health problem.

The condition is harmless and they should not be troubled much. To avoid colic do not overstimulate through feeding your child excessively and just follow your scheduled feeding time. For those who are breastfeeding stay away from gas forming foods and medications because they can affect your babies. Steady movement like rocking gently can put the child at ease. Infant’s physical condition is still very vulnerable so if you have more concerns is better to consult your paediatrician.
