Question
The baby has recently shown signs of urgency while breastfeeding and often cries. How should parents handle the situation where a baby cries due to rushed breastfeeding?
Answer
Crying in babies can have various causes, which may be physiological or pathological. Physiological causes include hunger, a wet diaper, inappropriate clothing, or being overly bundled; pathological causes may involve digestive issues or bloating due to improper feeding, deficiencies in nutrients like calcium, iron, and zinc, or other physical discomforts. If the room temperature is low, check if the baby’s clothing is appropriate, and add more clothes if necessary. It is recommended that parents carefully observe and identify the reasons for the crying and take appropriate measures based on the specific situation.
