Persistent Weeping and Crying
Excessive crying in infants
Crying is an important way for infants to communicate. But, when a baby cries a lot, it may be a sign of something that needs treatment.
Considerations
Infants normally cry about 1 to 3 hours a day. It is perfectly normal for an infant to cry when hungry, thirsty, tired, lonely, or in pain. It is also normal for a baby to have a fussy period in the evening.
But, if an infant cries too often, there might be a health problem that needs attention.
Causes
Infants may cry because of any of the following:
•Boredom or loneliness
•Colic
•Discomfort or irritation from a wet or dirty diaper, excessive gas, or feeling cold
•Hunger or thirst
•Illness
•Infection (a likely cause if the crying is accompanied by irritability, lethargy, poor appetite, or fever.)
•Medicines
•Normal muscle jerks and twitches that disturb the sleep
•Pain
•Teething
When should I take my baby to see the doctor with excessive crying?
Even colicky babies take a break now and then, so if your child has been crying nonstop for an hour or more and you’ve tried all the typical tactics mentioned above (feeding, changing, burping, rocking, etc.) there’s probably something more concerning to investigate.
Recurrent paroxysm of causeless crying are indication of low immunity.
