Does the baby cry during night and day, and doesn´t he sleep for more than 30 minutes?
         
 

Is your baby putting on weight more than 50 grams per day in the case of a boy and more than 40 grams per day in the case of a girl?

         
   

Diagnosis:
Your baby is overfed and may be having colics.

         

Your baby, like all the babies is under the oral stage, it means that his mouth and lips are the body parts of the greatest stimulation and pleasure. Sucking means a huge pleasure for him.
Your baby, like all the babies, looks for your breasts and sucks ALL THE TIME, everything, 24 hours a day, without interruption. It is a reflex! In fact, the search and sucking reflex is the more powerful subsistence reflex in the human being life. Every time you have the baby in your arms, he will be looking for the breasts, trying to suck, sucking also your arms, his hands, making noises. This does not mean that the baby is hungry! It only means that sucking represents for your baby a great pleasure (this is the oral stage).
So then, what must I do? Please follow the instructions.
