What do you do to your distressed infant wailing loud in the wee hours of night? A normal human response will be to rush and pick up your baby as soon as possible to soothe him. But what if this becomes a pattern with your baby, without any visible problems like hunger or pain. Many a kids develop this habit of crying without any reason just to gain attention from the parents. To get over this habit some parents have devised a new concept called ‘Controlled Crying’. Here the crying babies are not given attention and are left to be cried till they are tired. Though harsh, but this method has worked well in many cases.
However, this is definitely a heavy price that the babies have to pay in order to give an uninterrupted sleep to their parents. What about you...can you see your baby crying his guts out and just to ensure that once he is tired you will have the pleasure to have a sound sleep during nights to come.
