Colic Soothing techniques harmful for baby

Posted by admin on November 30th, 2009 | No Comments »

A study done in 1998 or 1826 mothers concluded that many parents’ soothing techniques could be harmful and even fatal when responding to crying babies.

The study also mentioned that the reporting of crying varied sociodemographically and alluded to minority ethnic and poorer groups having a worse record.

The conclusion went on to say that counseling should take place, preferable before birth of the baby.

Not many shocking revelations there, makes you think they could have used a better questionaire.
