Tell me how to stop a cry-baby or is it a baby crying? My friend has this baby that cries and cries and cries.
Any song, and talking... just distract the baby.
Also, is baby hungry? Need a change?!
Good luck.

Originally posted by yo its meI know that duct tape is not a good idea , but a pacifier is good only if the baby is hungry, otherwise it can cause more gas. Lay baby across your lap on its tummy and gently pat and rub its back. This helped my oldest baby. Actually, the ride in a car was what helped my sister's twins. Went right to sleep, they did! If a baby is just crying for no apparent reason, try a soft blanket, an old-fashioned rocking chair, and a lullaby. Mother of 4, grammy to 5.
You mean a passifier or a dummy?
If a baby is constantly crying while being hugged, if they are fed, clean and not hurt- then there is a problem. The baby might need medical attension, massage from tension or cranial osteopathy after a tramatic birth. A sign of meningitis is crying.
