Usually Mommy or Daddy can figure out why the new baby is crying, and they can help make the crying stop. All that crying can sometimes be hard to listen to, and you may get pretty tired of hearing it. But don t worry. New babies have very tiny tummies that fill up quickly and empty out quickly. That s why they have to eat so much more often than you do as often as twelve times a day or more.
New babies are really small when they re born, but they grow really fast.
All that growing is hard work, and it makes new babies very tired, sot they need to sleep a lot. But they don t do a lot of sleeping all at one time, like you do. When new babies are born, they ve just finished spending nine months inside their mommy's belly. New babies are used to being warm, snug, and cozy, and that s why being held and cuddled makes them so happy. Taking care of a new baby is a lot of work, and there are plenty of things you can do to help.
