Why do infants cry?
According to MedlinePlus, infants cry for about one to three hours daily. There are various reasons why an infant cries. The infant may be bored or lonely, suffering from colic, discomfort or irritation from a nappy, hunger or even illness. It is, however, essential to contact health professionals if the baby continues crying unabated for one day despite home remedies and if the crying is accompanied by other symptoms such as fever.
Mother tells Briefly News how she soothed her child
@alilali75 told Briefly News that they stopped a few times until her child was peacefully quiet.
"I had to drive to a safe place while she was crying. I put her on my back again until she fell asleep. All she wanted was to be in my hands. A six-hour drive turned into an 11-hour drive because I had to stop at every garage for an hour or so to get her to sleep," she said.
