Can anyone share tips to train a baby? I have a 4mnths old baby, sekarang sudah ade habbit utk menangis to get attention/something/to be held. Cth kalo sy pgg fon n he wants it tp tak kasi dea akan trus menjerit (thus i NO longer hold hp when playing with him) or when baru lps dukung/main2 n nk letak because kita nk pi toilet ke, nk tuka pampers ke mesti menangis kuat2 n bile trus dukung he just straight away laugh.. is that normal for baby? or if not how do i train him not to cry? for d time being i just follow wuteva he wants, thus babai to laundry n cooking n cleaning (or m i just being ridiculous?? m a working new mommy who needs guidance ')

Hi! just to share my knowledge.
I have a son 1 year 3 months.

Firstly, your baby is fine and it's normal.
Baby at this age has develop his emotion, when he's happy he would laugh out loud, when he's feeling joyous he's smile more. And of course since he is more expressive, when he feels insecure, he will protest more. Furthermore, he's diaphragm and abdominal muscles are more developed that's why his voice is louder. And the variation in his voice is more. He probably can use higher pitch voice etc.

For babies, everything is something new and unknown, so he is insecure.
The only place that he feels secure is in mama's chest.
It may be tough for mama but hold him gently, talk to him while rubbing him, sing him songs, make him feel secure.
If mama is feeling irritated or agitated, that feeling will transfer to baby. So firstly, please make sure mama is relaxed.
When you want to go to the toilet,tell your baby that "Mama will go to the toilet just for a while.It is going to be alright"
If possible,put him in the place where he can see you.

As for housework, let's try to do it when baby is sleeping.
It may be very though but this is only now.
After a few months, all of these will be sweet memories.
Babies grow up very fast.

And 1 more thing I would like to advice is, you don't have to do all the house work perfectly.
You are working as well right? Things that you don't need to do, don't do. Ask your husband to help you whenever he can. Make sure you give yourself enough rest.
Relax and let's enjoy raising child. ^^
