okay so I know people raise their kids different which fine but anyways I was on mommy's mentality and there was a status about letting kids cry alot of people said that it can cause damage to the brain and can cause anxiety when they get older and I have never once heard that I was always told that is healthy for them to cry if nothing wrong with them it helps their lungs develop alot faster does anyone on here let their kids cry if nothing is wrong with them or is it just me
Crying is the only way babies have to vent! A lot of the time, babies will cry their poor little heads off at the end of the day to relieve stress and overstimulation from their day. My boy has reflux which gives him a sour stomach sometimes so he will cry when he doesn't feel good and all I can do is just put an ear plug in and hold him until he stops. Research says that you're not supposed to let your baby cry for more than ten minutes in a room by themselves (I don't know the reason, maybe so they don't feel abandoned?) but it's not going to give your child brain damage to let them cry because they are venting and relieving stress. Does your baby take a probiotic? Sometimes if their tummy doesn't feel good, the probiotic daily will help and it cuts down on crying because their gut feels better :)
that's not being strict sometimes you have to do cause nothing else works sometimes they just cry to hear them selfs cry or they want to be held and I am not the type to hold a child all day everyday don't get me wrong I hold my kids and show them love all the time but I have to clean and other things too
Sometimes I check on her, maybe she pooped, maybe she finished her bottle quickly. But I handle everything and then try putting her back to sleep. Some parents would say I was too strict with her. But my daughter was on a very good schedule. 12pm nap, 8:30pm bed time. When I watch her or when anyone else watched her. I made sure they knew the schedule. I made her play allot So by the time it was nap or bed time, she was welcoming the bottle and the crib.
If there is nothing wrong mentality or physically, then yes I do let my child cry allot. Meaning if I put her to sleep for her nap and she gets upset I let her cry
well I use to let my oldest cry hisself to sleep cause nothing worked getting him to sleep all night but during naps I only let him cry up 15 mins and then went and got him and as for my youngest one I don't do it yet cause he is only 7 months old and he don't really cry alot and sleeps for the most part so I got lucky on this one
