VishruthaMom of 2 children4 years agoA. Babies cry for various reason, like when they are hungry, bored, hot or cold temperatures, dirty diaper, uncomfortable clothing, hair around toe, gassy pain, mosquito bites etc.
Try to soothe baby accordingly figuring out the cause.
Keep a cool and calm environment at night and keep lights and noise level low. Dont talk or interact with baby when he wakes up at night. Keep day time well lit and play or do lot of activities.
Baby could be having teething pain. So try to give a gentle massage to baby's gums with a soft cotton cloth or finger brush. Give a chilled teether or washcloth for relief from teething pain.
Babies usually should double their birth weight by 5th month and triple birth weight by 1 year
Only breastmilk or formula are main sources of nutrition for babies. After 5 to 6 months you can give solid foods to baby after confirmation and guidance from baby's pediatrician.
Give tummy time daily for a few minutes multiple times. Gently massage your baby's tummy with castor oil with fingers and keep a warm water towel for few minutes. Cycle baby's legs with your hands gently after every feed. Also keep baby upright in standing position holding with your hands for support few minutes after feed. This helps the poop to travel down with gravity.
Baby massage is one of the best ways to calm and soothe your baby. Massage has health benefits for your baby such as improving blood circulation, weight gain, digestion
