The baby grows, and his or her nervous system develops. Other emotions emerge, and the baby learns to express his needs differently. But until he realizes this, you need to watch your baby’s behavior closely and respond to it immediately. In time, you will learn to understand why a newborn baby is crying by the slightest change in his facial expressions or intonation.
An infant cannot tell his parents that he is anxious and worried, so he communicates this information the only way he can – through his behavior. Frequent crying, poor sleep, and difficulties with feeding – these signs in a healthy baby can indicate excessive anxiety. Where does anxiety come from in a newborn? And how to help, in this case, the baby and the parents.
A baby shows anxiety in several ways. First and foremost, crying. It is a baby’s main way of getting attention and meeting needs. However, besides anxiety, crying can also mean the baby is hungry, sleepy, uncomfortable, colic, etc. If a baby cries after feeding, he or she may have colic. Many parents face this symptom in the first 3-4 months of a baby’s life. The pediatrician may recommend abdominal massage and medications to improve digestion. Pay attention to the quality of the baby formula you use, its composition, and the presence of all the necessary minerals and vitamins for comfortable work of the digestive system. European baby formulas based on organic milk with probiotics in their composition can be a helpful remedy in such cases.
Crying is an all too common sign that something is going wrong. In addition, there are other important signs of anxiety in your baby’s life.
First, you must pay attention to your baby’s sleeping habits. The baby does not sleep well, for example, falling asleep for half an hour and only in your arms, then waking up and crying. An anxious baby may refuse feeding more often, and you have to offer it many times. Behave restlessly- motor excitement and rapid breathing, and less often screaming. It quickly stops when the mom appears, with her gentle voice or a smile. By the way, the signs of anxiety can also include the fact that the child can not stay alone, even for a minute, and constantly needs contact with a parent, at least visually. It should be noted that the smaller the child, the more physical contact he or she needs with the parent.
