Patient's question:
The baby has recently been crying and fussing at fixed times. I would like to ask, what is the reason for the baby crying at fixed times every day?Doctor's answer:
In the first few months, it is normal for babies to cry at fixed times, often occurring in the evening or at night. Some babies may need to be fed every hour from 6 PM to 10 PM, nursing for a few minutes, then crying for a bit, and then nursing again. This cycle can last for several hours, which can be very painful for the mom, but it is all a normal phenomenon. It has nothing to do with your parenting style or your milk supply. There is no need to look for a reason—just soothe the baby.
