Why Babies Cry

Understanding Your Newborn's First Eight Weeks—One Cry at a Time

Stop wondering. Start understanding.

Few things are more stressful than a baby who won't stop crying.

Is your baby hungry?
Too tired?
In pain?
Or is this simply normal newborn behavior?

As a pediatric emergency medicine physician and a mom of two, I've cared for thousands of worried parents—and I've been one myself. I know what it's like to wonder if something is seriously wrong.

This practical guide will help you understand what your baby's cries are really trying to tell you.

My goal isn't to turn you into a doctor.
