If your baby is having uncontrollable fits of crying then no amount of medication or treatment can totally resolve the problem. Consult your doctor and in the meantime you may want to consider the following natural tips to help stop or at least minimize your baby’s crying habits.

1. Somebody new: If you have been struggling to stop your baby from crying for a long period of time by holding them, then you invariably will start to get tired and show signs of stress. Your baby can sense this, as well as notice the change in your facial expressions. In turn this may be creating more crying from your baby. What is the possible solution? Simply hand the baby over to a new face in the house who is not worn down and stressed by having held a crying baby for hours. The crying may then cease.

2. Too much excitement: When you first have a baby everyone wants to constantly come see him or her. You also enjoy taking the baby everywhere you go to show off the latest edition to your family. Exposing the baby to new environments and having different people share moments with your baby is absolutely ok but… this may prove to be too much simulation and will cause non-stop crying. Sometimes a simple solution to your baby’s crying is to take away all of the stimuli that may be causing irritable crying habits.

3. The need for sucking satisfaction: Believe it or not the simplest solution to excessive crying is to give the baby something to suck on. Most parents think that babies need sucking only for nourishment needs but this couldn’t be further from the truth. When attempting to relieve your baby’s crying with something to suck on then help them get their fingers in their mouth, offer your pinky finger to the baby (cleaned throughly), or supply an orthodontic style pacifier. WARNING: Never attached a string to a pacifier. This may cause the baby to choke themselves.
