Hearing a baby cry is part of life. This is because the infant cannot talk yet to say what he or she wants so the parents have to do whatever it takes to make it stop. Should this occur longer than usual, some will overreact and think there is something wrong with the child.
Some will even drive the newborn to the hospital only to find out that this is normal. Doctors will explain that this is just an indication that the baby is colic.
The colic phase occurs during the first three weeks until the third or fourth of age. This may seem like a long time but this too shall pass gradually.
There are various causes why this happens but the only thing that the parents should focus on is how to make it stop.
Parents should be well aware that this may happen at anytime. It can happen early in the morning, in the afternoon when the baby should be napping or late at night. This is because the biological clock of a newborn is very different than an adult.
Those who are raising the infant will wake up and wont even get the usual amount of sleep. This will leave the couple feeling even if there is a shifting schedule.
