Question
My four-month-old baby isn’t breastfeeding today and won’t take her afternoon nap. She’s crying loudly in fits. What could be wrong? I took her on the bus today, and she shouldn’t have caught a cold. What’s going on? I’m very worried.
Answer
The baby might be crying because she can’t express her feelings, which could mean she’s feeling unwell. I suggest taking her to a pediatrician for a check-up. Also, if you’ve taken her out lately, it might be that she’s had an overreaction to a scare, causing a temporary stress response. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you. Wishing you and your baby good health!
