What to do if the baby is startled and cries loudly

Patient's question:

I had a heated argument with my wife, which scared our 1.5-year-old baby. At that time, the baby started crying loudly and fell asleep at night suddenly started crying again, kicking and thrashing uncontrollably, refusing to take a nap or lie down. Then, when sleeping, the baby kept groaning and frequently shook his head, waking up. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The environment for a baby's transformation needs to be warm and harmonious. According to your description, the child has never seen this situation and was frightened too much. In the future, try to avoid arguing, especially not in front of the child. Arguing in front of the child, particularly if it's loud, can leave psychological scars on the child. In these next few days, try to engage the child in laughter and show them warm scenes as much as possible. Carefully observe for a few days to see how the baby recovers on their own. This advice is for the question "I had a heated argument with my wife and scared my 1.5-year-old baby, who cried loudly at night." I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
