Pacifiers to Quiet Crying Babies

Welcome back my name is Alisha and I'm with Expert Village. Another technique that some children like to have to help them soothe their crying is either a pacifier or actually using your finger for them to suck on. This helps the 2nd reflects helps them calm down. You can actually ease their stomach if they are having problems. It slows down the heart beat and even better when they get angry and their limbs start to flair. The pacifier can actually calm them down enough just to sit there and relax just a little bit longer. But always keep in mind with the sucking reflexes this may indicate that they are actually hungry and you should feed them. They are not just wanting something to suck on. But they do like to suck on things usually a hour after they have eaten. This just helps them calm down and relax after they eat and this would help with the digestion process.
