A six-month-old baby screamed at the top of his lungs

When the baby reaches six months old, a lot of changes will occur, and his daily mood can be conveyed through his voice. But when a six-month-old baby screams at the top of his lungs, parents should pay attention to see if the baby is feeling uncomfortable anywhere, and pay more attention to whether the respiratory tract is blocked. Of course, some babies may just be playing, but it is not ruled out that the baby may be feeling uncomfortable, such as if they have urinated or defecated.

1. Various symptoms

Babies have a weak cough reflex, and if respiratory secretions increase, it can easily become blocked and cause suffocation. Observe carefully and be alert to the possibility of suffocation if there are symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection.

The baby's deciduous teeth may be erupting, causing gum discomfort. The itching may also be caused by a rash on the body. The baby has no obvious crying symptoms, and simply shouting does not warrant painful diseases. In the child's case, the excitement of babbling may also be the cause. The baby's condition here is just a preliminary consideration and needs to be examined by a pediatric clinician to make a clear diagnosis and then provide treatment.

The baby's cough may be caused by dry throat. You should let the baby drink more water and check whether the baby's throat is red or swollen or the tonsils are swollen.

It is recommended that if the baby's throat is red and swollen and accompanied by irritating dry cough, you can first give the baby Shuanghuanglian oral liquid to observe whether the symptoms can be relieved. If not, go to the hospital's pediatric department in time.

2. Causes and responses of screaming

1. Maybe you are wet, hungry, tired, sleepy, or injured.

When your baby is screaming, you should check to see if there is anything that makes him uncomfortable: Is the diaper wet? Did you get your hands scratched? Or haven't eaten in more than a few hours?

2. Maybe I feel lonely.

Babies often use screaming to ask their parents to get close and caress them. At this time, you should ask yourself: Are you so busy with work or housework that you neglect to pay attention to your children?

3. Perhaps it is because of emotional instability that one appears irritable and restless.

What you need to do at this time is to respond positively to your baby's feelings. You can hug him, touch him, or talk to him to calm him down.

4. Maybe he doesn’t want to be kept in a fence or crib for a long time.

You can gently move him somewhere else along with his favorite toys. For a young baby, knowing that you are by his side or a new and interesting environment can immediately divert his attention.
