I saw my friend who is just having newborn baby was frustration and distress when her baby crying frequently. I suggest her to check what the causes his cried. Crying baby can be differentiated between normal crying with crying because of something wrong that make baby in unwell condition. Parents must know about it.

Crying baby can be caused by several reasons such as:

• Baby is hungry. His cried is a good first step when he is hungry and starts fussy. Baby will stop feed if his stomach is full.
• Baby stays in uncomfortable condition as when the diapers are soiled, so he needs fresh diapers or he wants to change his clothes because it’s hot or cold.
• Baby is not placed in best settle. Every baby is not the same, some babies sleep calmly in dark light or no sound but some babies would rather sleep with noisy sound or activity. As parent, you have to know your baby while sleep.
• Baby wants to be held by parent, so he can look parent’s face, listen parent’s voice and sometimes baby familiar with smell of mother (milk mother). Maybe baby wants to be near with parent. You can use baby sling and take the baby next on you wherever you are.
• Baby is over tired. You find crying baby after spending time for holiday and your baby need relaxation for much time.
• Baby is unwell. Crying baby can be caused by bad condition and you have to check what is your baby illness or is there any problem his or her healthy as colic.
