POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. When a baby applies a lot of pressure while crying and makes their face turn red, it is typically due to the natural response of straining. Babies often cry because they are trying to communicate discomfort, hunger, or other needs, and the muscle tension in their face, throat, and chest increases during crying, causing redness. This can happen even after breastfeeding because babies sometimes overexert themselves during feeds, especially if they are frustrated, tired, or need to burp. This type of crying and pressure is common, but if it becomes excessive or the baby appears in pain, it's worth consulting with your pediatrician to rule out any other underlying issues, such as gas or reflux.
