Many parents with parenting experience know that it is normal for babies to cry in daily life, but as soon as they are held in their arms, the baby stops crying and starts crying when they put the baby down. This is something that many parents take for granted. Some babies may continue to cry when their mother holds them, but when their father holds them, they stop crying. Why does the baby stop crying when their father holds them?
Why doesn't the dad cry when holding the baby
Under normal circumstances, some babies may recognize their children at an early age, which is a sign of their memory development and intellectual progress. Two month old babies may start to recognize people. Of course, at this moment, the baby still greets the scent of their mother. At the same time, the position where the mother holds may be more comfortable than that of the father, which is also a reason. The main reason is that the mother has a milky scent, which the baby likes to smell. It is also beneficial for the father to have more contact with the baby in daily life, which can enhance the parent-child relationship.
How to classify infants, toddlers, and children
1. The infancy period refers to the period from birth to the age of one, during which children rely mainly on breast milk as their primary food, hence it is called the lactation period. Early childhood, from 1 year old to 3 years old, is called early childhood. During this period, children's physical growth rate relatively slows down, and their eating habits gradually transition from breast milk to adult diet.
2. Early childhood, from the age of 3 to the age of 6 to 7 before entering primary school, is a critical period for personality formation and has a high degree of plasticity. Education should be emphasized to cultivate good living habits. Childhood, from the age of 6 to 7 when entering primary school to the age of 12 to 13 when entering puberty, is called school age.
In summary, it is normal for a baby to be held by their father without crying. Since newborns are not yet able to express their feelings and only get to know the people around them through physical contact, if the father holds them more comfortably and feels more secure, then the baby will not cry. Novice mothers will learn the holding and sitting posture of novice fathers, and babies will also like it.
