Why babies cry
Babies can't tell you what they want - the only way they can get your attention is to cry.
They cry if they are hungry.
They cry if they are wet and need changing.
They cry if they are too hot or too cold.
They cry if they are thirsty.
They cry if they are tired.
They cry if they have a pain.
They cry if they are scared.
They cry if they want a cuddle.
They cry if they are not sure what they want!
The crying is not always the same. As you get to know the baby, you will be able to tell what she is crying for.
