The first stage is to catch the moment: Baby cries during meals, when alone in a crib or bed or when being held.

The cry started during the meal

Stop feeding your baby and try to comfort him. If your baby doesn't stop crying, give him a pacifier. If your baby stops crying for a few minutes and eats normally again, they may have bowel pain. If your baby stops, then cries again until you give the bottle or suck the breast, consider the following possibilities:

- If the baby is breastfed and the breast is out of milk (or the baby has finished feeding the bottle quickly), he may be hungry. Give him another bottle of milk and see if he drinks?

- If your baby leaves a little milk in the bottle and stops crying, proving that he is full.

- If your baby refuses the bottle and continues to cry, give him a pacifier.

Crying begins when you are holding your baby

There may be three cases:

- Baby seems tired . Put your baby on the bed in a comfortable position. If the crying subsides for a few minutes, it is a sign that your baby is very tired and is going to sleep. If the cry lasts, you can raise the baby, give the baby a pacifier. If your baby still does not stop, see if he is hungry or needs stimulation.

- Baby may be hungry (the last meal is more than 2 hours or more). If your baby is breastfed or bottle-fed, your baby is still crying, maybe your baby needs to be stimulated or tired.

- If the baby does not seem sleepy, not hungry , he may need stimulation (talking, listening to music, playing toys) or needing to suck the nipple. If unsuccessful, try feeding your baby or putting your baby to bed.

Crying begins when the child is alone in the crib

There may be two cases:

- Baby sleeps and you hear your baby cry in the crib, before holding him up, make sure he is awake? Occasionally, your baby may cry during sleep, so don't interfere, just let him fall back to sleep. If your baby is really awake, pick him up. If your baby still cries, ask yourself if your baby is hungry or needs other needs.

- She slept in your arms, but just cried in her crib. If the crying subsides, there is no problem because the baby will fall back to sleep. If the cry increases, you just need to raise the baby and coax him to sleep again.

- Baby does not sleep: Baby may be hungry, sleepy or need someone nearby.

If your baby still doesn't stop? You should think about other causes such as thirst, cold, wet or need to be held.
