How do I help my newborn stop crying?

It is important to remember that your newborn’s primary method of communication is crying. Crying in newborns is never a sign of manipulation, but rather a sign of distress. If your newborn is crying, begin by checking these things:

1) Is your baby’s diaper clean and dry?
2) Is your baby too cold or too warm?
3) Are They Hungry?
4) Are they tired or overstimulated?
5) Do they have gas or are they constipated?

If you have tried everything you can think of, do not panic. Ensure your newborn is safe and contact Dr. Kolsi who can help you discover the source of your newborn’s crying.
