Distinguishing the wails of a baby and understanding what they mean poses problems for first time parents. The coming of a newborn is something special in every home with parents hosting a party and inviting their close ones for seeing the baby. However, there are certain issues that need to be understood by parents. The entire fun can be spoiled if the child starts crying and the reason for the issue cannot be established. This article will try to help you out with the basics, though it is in no way complete.

That would take volumes and there are various books on the subject available. The toddler generally cries when they wet their nappies. This makes them feel uncomfortable and they announce it by means of crying. So this is the first thing to look out for. You should remove their wet nappies and then dry the child using a soft and damp towel and then sprinkle some talcum powder on their bottoms before putting on a fresh nappy on them. Only use towels and talcum powder that are specifically manufactured for babies and are suitable for their tender skin.

When the toddler grows a bit, they will start crawling and this is another moment of joy for its parents. However this is the moment when parents should be extra wary. By this time, their child has developed enough hand-eye co-ordination to recognize objects, lift them with their small fingers and then try to put them in their mouth. Ensure there are no small objects are lying around on the floor of the room where the child is playing.

If they eat it, it might get stuck in their throat and choke the same. If the object is ingested it can cause further problems. The food requirements of a baby are simple and there are various types of pre-packed diets available for them. They should be breast-fed for a minimum of 3 months before being fed with packaged milk. Only purchase those that have been specially formulated for babies.

We may love to hug our babies all the time but do we ever think whether the toddler prefers it or not? Try to observe them for extended periods of time and see what actions make them cry and what makes them smile. Make a chart out of these observations. It will help you to keep the baby happy and smiling.
