Why babies cry with tears?
* Tear ducts aren't fully developed: A baby's tear ducts, the tiny tubes that drain tears from the eyes, are still developing. They typically don't fully function until around 3-4 months of age.
* Crying serves a different purpose: Before tears, crying serves as a primary communication tool. It's a way for babies to express their needs and communicate distress.
* Early crying is instinctual: Newborns cry for things like hunger, discomfort, being cold, tired, or needing a diaper change.
When do tears start?
Once the tear ducts develop, around 3-4 months of age, babies begin to cry with tears. This usually happens gradually, and the amount of tears can vary from baby to baby.
Why do babies cry?
Even with tears, the reasons for crying remain the same:
* Basic needs: Hunger, wet diaper, discomfort, being cold.
* Emotional needs: Loneliness, boredom, overstimulation, pain.
* Attention seeking: Wanting to be held, played with, or fed.
It's important to remember:
* Crying is a normal and healthy part of a baby's development.
* It's your job to figure out what your baby is trying to communicate.
* If you are concerned about your baby's crying, always consult with a medical professional.
