Patient's question:
2-month-old baby, rarely cries or fusses, but starts crying non-stop after waking up in the morning. Crying stops for a moment when held, but then resumes. No wheezing, no vomiting, no fever. Sometimes his hands and feet are damp. Where is he uncomfortable? What's the reason for the baby's crying in the morning?Doctor's answer:
Crying is a way for babies to express themselves. Since babies cannot use language to communicate their needs, crying is their language. When babies are still unable to communicate with the outside world through language, gestures, or other means, crying becomes their only way to express their needs. Based on the described situation, the child's crying after waking up in the morning may be related to factors such as exposure to loud noises and bright lights, hunger, or other issues. It could also be that the baby is crying due to indigestion and abdominal bloating.
