As soon a baby cries, the natural instinct of the parent is to find a solution as quickly as possible so that he or she can calm down and return to that happy go lucky gurgling little bundle of joy that they have come to adore.

There are several reasons why a baby cries and one of the hardest things to do is to figure out what that reason is in order to fix the problem. There have been many books written on the subject of decoding a baby's cry so that you know instinctively what he or she needs.

Here is a list of some of the possible reasons why a baby cries and the things that can be done in order to remedy the issue. Work your way through each one and you are sure to find the solution.

Baby Is Unwell

The quickest way to find out if your child is unwell is to check his or her temperature. If it is unusually high, then this could be the cause for the discomfort. If your child is throwing up you will want to get in touch with your doctor or the emergencies services, whichever you deem the most appropriate.

Baby Needs Food

Although you may have set up a particular feeding schedule and it is not time for another feed, this could be the reasons for the tears. It is possible that your little one did not take on enough food previously so is still feeling undernourished. The simple solution is to prepare a little food and see if this will stop the crying.

Baby Is Really Tired

When a baby is tired, he or she will often start to cry. This is also the case when a little one is over tired. They are very uncomfortable and do not know how to get themselves in the right frame of mind so that they can drift off. There are plenty of things that a parent can do to help baby fall off to sleep. You can hold the baby in your arms or put them in their pram and gently swing them back and forth. This gentle movement will help to calm them down and lull them off to sleep.

These are just some of the reasons why a baby cries. It shouldn't take you long to go through the process of checking each point until you reach the real reason. Once you do, the solution is often very easy.
