How long does the baby cry after childbirth?

Quite often, young mothers, concerned about the state of health of their newborn, are interested in such a question, which directly relates to how much the child cries immediately after childbirth, and what can be caused by his discontent. Let's deal with this issue.

How long does the baby's post-natal crying last?

It must be said that the mere crying of a newly born baby is a kind of reaction of his body to sharply changed environmental conditions. In addition, such a process promotes better and faster alveolar distension and filling with air. In this way, the baby tries to fill the lungs with oxygen as soon as possible. Now, when communication with the mother through the cord is cut off, it is in the pulmonary system that gas exchange takes place.

Definitely to name the duration of the period during which the child cries after childbirth is very difficult. In some cases, this can last only a few minutes, until the baby is applied to the mother's breast. However, sometimes even this manipulation does not reassure him.

In order to reassure the newborn, midwives, after they have cleansed the skin from the remains of blood, place crumbs under a special lamp. After all, the baby's crying can be connected in part and with a sharp drop in the temperature of its environment.

From what can a baby cry?

The reasons for the appearance of crying in the baby is quite a lot. However, most often discontent of newborns, as well as babies is caused by:

• hunger;
• pain;
• uncomfortable ambient temperature;
• a sense of loneliness and insecurity.

This is by no means a complete list of reasons that a child's crying may cause. Moreover, in some cases, the mother herself, after she has tried everything to calm the baby, fails to establish what caused the weeping of the crumbs.
