Instructions
Step 1
If the child is crying, then there is a reason, but how serious it is - a wet diaper or a desire to bite a cat's ear, it's up to you to decide. To calm your baby, try to eliminate the causes of crying in order.
Step 2
The baby is wet - it's time to change the diaper. Even if in the maternity hospital you were told that you need to swaddle every 2-3 hours before feeding, this does not mean at all that the baby “having done his job” should quietly wait for the next diaper change.
Step 3
The baby is hungry - babies get tired quickly, so they can fall asleep right in the middle of feeding without having eaten. In this case, it is convenient to feed the baby on demand. To find out if your baby has enough milk, do a wet diaper test.
Step 4
The child wants to sleep. An overexcited baby cannot fall asleep right away, although he really wants it. Be patient and try to rock him. In such a situation, calm quiet music or bubbling water - a room fountain or a thin stream of water pressure in the bathroom - will become assistants. Hum a lullaby, you can even waltz slightly, lulling the child. Walk more in the fresh air and ventilate the room where the child sleeps.
Step 5
If the baby cries while bathing, walking, changing clothes, perhaps the first experience of these procedures was unsuccessful. The child is afraid and uncomfortable. Create favorable conditions, stroke, say affectionate words, let all movements be soft and smooth. The first days of the newborn can be lowered into the bath along with the diaper, so it's easier to get used to changing the temperature regime. Sometimes babies cry on the street, they don't like to be in a stroller. First, carry the child in your arms, rock it and put it in the stroller, so it gets used to it and stops being afraid.
Step 6
Check if the baby is cold or overheated. This is also the cause of crying. Inexperienced mothers exaggerate everything and instead of one vest they wear two - just in case.
Step 7
If all of the above reasons are inappropriate, it is likely that the baby is in pain. These are colic, and fever, and colds, and teething. In this case, consult your pediatrician. Do not self-medicate.
Step 8
To calm your child down when he gets hurt or scared, use the following tips:
• Take it in your arms and change the environment, take it to another room, go to the window, iron it, take pity on it.
• Make the child laugh - tickle, vilify "airplane".
• Show your favorite toy or pet, half-year-olds are very fond of "moving toys".
• If the kid has filled a bump - blow, for the kids this is a real delight, and at the same time punish the “offender” who is to blame.
Step 9
The grown-up child insistently demands exactly what he cannot. Use your imagination, the son wants a crystal glass - offer an empty plastic bottle, tries to get into your box - give a large empty box and hide the toys in it. This needs to be done very quickly, improvisation can help you in any situation.
