Xiao Zhao, who lives in Zhengzhou, went to a local hospital to see a doctor because his 6-month-old son had been crying since childhood, but his son was diagnosed with cerebral palsy.
The doctor said that the crying is a manifestation of the child's brain damage. He did not see a doctor until 6 months ago. He has developed cerebral palsy, and it is difficult to have an ideal treatment effect.
Xiao Zhao said: "My son has been very difficult to raise since he was born. He is more crying than other children and has less time to sleep. The family can't take care of this child. He is not good at breastfeeding and is very thin. He cries whenever he wakes up. , I can't coax him no matter what."
Later, the doctor also learned through the family that the child had jaundice after birth, which lasted for 3 weeks, and then the treatment was stopped.
The doctor reminds: the baby has abnormal conditions such as premature birth , hypoxia or severe postpartum jaundice. Parents should be alert to brain damage.
Little babies can't speak, they are hungry, hot, hurt, and miss their mother. They can only express through crying . Many novice parents lack the experience of caring for newborns , and face the child's endless crying. All of them are more irritable, and what's more, they simply leave the child aside and let him cry enough.
But why does the child cry? Do you know the reason behind it?
There is even a saying that a baby crying for more than 20 minutes will hurt 's brain , is this true? Today we are going to talk about those things about crying babies!
Can a baby cry for more than 20 minutes and hurt the brain?
Is this true? A recent report by
shows that letting babies cry is dangerous, and sometimes their cry is a special signal to the outside world.
When a child cries, if ignored, they will indeed stop crying when they are tired. But this disappointment, 's repression of 's emotions, will cause them to secrete a "repression hormone" that negatively affects the baby's brain.
Nanjing Children's Hospital neurology director Liang Chao said, "Even if you cry for more than 20 minutes, if there is no obvious apnea hypoxia response, it should not hurt the brain so seriously."
According to the research results, the so-called brain damage is more is psychological. So we don't have to worry about irreversible physiological damage to the baby's brain.
Special reminder: Three kinds of crying situations of babies need to be paid more attention.
It does not mean that children cannot cry, or that they must be stopped immediately. Sometimes the child just grunts a few times and then soothes it in a few minutes.
But if a child is crying incessantly, we need to take care not to let them cry for more than 20 minutes.Especially the following three situations:
Situation 1: [cry]
Performance: The baby always wakes up at night, crying and sleeping for a while, very restless, as if frightened. Crying is often sleepy, crying with eyes closed, and limbs shaking at the same time.
Small suggestion: If the baby has night terrors, is diagnosed as calcium deficiency , and some calcium can be supplemented under the doctor's advice.
Medically, this kind of crying is called cerebral screaming, which is expressed as urgent and loud crying, and can even be expressed as screaming crying. , should immediately seek medical examination.
Situation 2: [crying]
manifests : often accompanied by symptoms of the digestive tract, mostly before defecation, due to abdominal pain caused by intestinal spasm , the cry is very urgent, and may also be accompanied by Bowel sounds exist.
When the stomach hurts, the baby will suddenly cry in deep sleep, often crying with eyes closed, legs curled up, waist arched, little butt lying on his stomach, or hands covering his stomach.
Small suggestion: Try to put the baby on the toilet, once the stool is cleared, the crying will stop.
If the baby is still very uncomfortable, some novice parents will help the baby to rub the belly, but the result is not bad, but the baby will cry even more.
If the baby is still not very comfortable, we can try to apply a warm compress on the baby's belly to make the baby's belly a little warmer, and the symptoms of menstrual cramps may be relieved.
Or let the baby lie down, and it will relieve the symptoms.
If the baby has severe stomach pain, see a doctor immediately, because one or two-year-old baby is the same as in infancy, there is also the possibility of intussusception .
Situation 3: [The cry is low]
Performance: is like crying and a weak "hum" sound, the crying is weak or is hoarse. The sound of crying indicates that the disease is serious, the course of the disease is long, or the constitution is weak and so on.
Small suggestion: It is easy for us to pay attention to the crying of the baby, but the moaning and crying are often ignored by us. Sometimes this is a manifestation of the aggravation of the disease.
Recommended learning: The 5 most common reasons for crying babies
Hunger is the most common cause of newborn crying. The younger the baby, the more likely the crying is because of hunger.
The exception is the first day or two after a baby is born, because some babies do eat less at that time. If your baby is full and still crying, it may be because he has other demands.
. Babies need to change clothes or change diapers
Babies are generally very sensitive when their clothes are too tight or their diapers are dirty.
It is easy to check if a diaper is dirty, and you can also take the opportunity to find out if the diaper is wrapped too tightly or if the baby's clothes fit well.
. Babies feel too hot or too cold
The same is true when your baby sleeps, if it is too hot, cover him less, if it is too cold, cover him more.
Baby's hands and feet are usually a little cooler, so to know if your baby is hot or cold, you should touch the temperature of his palms or the back of his neck.
4. Babies want you to hug
Some babies just want adults to hug. Newborns generally have to be held to be satisfied. If your baby is full and has changed his diaper, he may be crying just to want you to hold him.
5. The baby is not feeling well.
If you have just finished feeding the baby and you have not noticed anything that makes him uncomfortable, but when he is still crying, you can consider taking his temperature to see if he is sick.
Likewise, if a normally crying baby suddenly becomes unusually quiet, there may be a problem with him. In either case, if you feel something is wrong, be sure to take him to the hospital.
