When do babies cry when crying?
newborn baby bitterly crying without tears A crumb in the womb experiences emotions, but does not cry with tears. His eyes are washed with amniotic fluid and preserve health.
A bit of anatomy. The body of the crumb after birth is covered in a bloom. It protects the skin and all mucous membranes from invading bacteria and microorganisms.

- in the lacrimal ducts of
Pediatricians and children's ophthalmologists claim that their disclosure occurs from 2-6 weeks of a newborn's life. Then the young mother will see the first tears at his weeping. In some cases, crumbs are able to shed tears from the first minute of life in the airspace.

All the discharge is removed neatly with cotton wool after treatment with infusion of chamomile, own milk from the breast or special drops. But before any manipulation consult doctors.
To do this:
- wash your hands with antibacterial soap
- take a clean cotton pad
- gently and moderately hard press the little finger from the point under the inner corner of the eye to it
- repeat the actions for the second eye
- massage up to 5 times a day
When an opaque discharge is accumulated in the baby's eyes, it must be washed, for example, with a solution of furacilin, and removed with clean dry cotton wool.
For their cleaning in a day hospital in a polyclinic, a pediatric ophthalmologist performs a micro operation for a baby under local anesthesia. The latter is dripped special drops into the eye and trigger the probe. Its task is to push the cork out of the channel or expand it for its free passage. The procedure is painless and gives the desired result.
Tears in newborns: Komarovsky
the baby is crying heavily on the hands of his mother If you see tears in the eyes of a crumb or an opaque detachable before, then it has dacryocystitis. In other words - blockage of the nasoglossal canal. Most often it occurs in one of the eyes and can manifest itself on the second after the treatment of the first.
Komarowski recommends in case of dacryocystitis:
- massage of the nasoglossal canal to the child,
- washing of the eye with furatsilin solution if purulent discharge accumulates, or saline solution if the liquid in the eye is transparent,
- mandatory removal of excess fluid from the eye with clean cotton fleece
For example, when a child is crying, the nasopharyngeal channels from the bacteria are washed. Because in his tears there are enzymes responsible for their elimination. That is, crying for about 5 minutes to a small person is good for your health.
Let's add one - the sensitivity of the mother's heart in communicating with the newborn is alien to a man, even a graduate medical doctor.
