As you respond to your child's cries, you'll be learning how to recognize and meet her needs, and she'll be learning to trust you to do so. You're building a relationship, getting to know one another, and that takes time. Some babies cry more than others, and that's okay. Some don't cry much as newborns, but then seem to get more demanding. They all have different personalities and different ways of responding to their world.
Motion is a great soother.
If your baby has a regular crying time lasting several hours each day, during which she is unconsolable, she may have colic . Some people think colic is caused by gas, since baby seems so uncomfortable despite having been fed, changed, rocked, et cetera. Others say it is more likely that colic is related to the development of baby's nervous system. Whatever the case, most babies outgrow colic by the time they are three or four months old, and there are no lasting effects. However, colic is nevertheless a trying time for both baby and parents.
