Did you know that it is possible to make your baby stop crying in just a few seconds? Learn the technique from the American doctor who calms the baby just by holding him:
Anyone who has a newborn at home knows that behind all the cuteness and the wonderful baby smell, these little ones have powerful little lungs, capable of keeping their parents up night after night. But the good news is that it is possible to stop your baby from crying in seconds if he is not sick or has colic.
Best of all, the technique is very simple to apply. According to the creator of the method, American pediatrician Robert Hamilton, from California; All you need to do is learn the right way to hold your baby and rock him gently.
Below in the list you will learn exactly how to carry your baby so that he calms down.
How to stop the baby from crying:
1. Hold the baby face down
2. Hold the arms gently, keeping them close to the body
3. Hold your hips, leaving your legs free
4. Gently move the baby (moving from side to side, up and down, and even moving the baby’s hips), keeping the child at a 45-degree angle. This prevents the baby from moving backwards and falling
Really works?
Interesting, right? According to the doctor, and with the video you will see below, it is possible to make the baby stop crying in a few seconds from the moment you place him in this position.
If, however, you notice that the baby continues to fuss and cry, even after a few seconds of the technique, it is possible that the child is really sick or hungry. So, try to pay attention to the signals your baby is giving.
Another detail that the doctor highlights is that this technique is recommended for babies in the first three months of life. After that, the child becomes too heavy for you to hold him as the technique requires and you may end up letting him fall without adequate back support.
