Music
for Your Fussy, Cranky Babies and Newborns
 Is
your new baby fussy, cranky and colicky? If this is your problem,
music is one of the most important things you can use with you new baby
or preemie to help them sleep. Fussy, crying babies are stressful
for new parents and finding a way to quiet and calm your baby is
crucially important! Soothing and calming a baby is not always
easy because new parents don't know why the baby is crying. If the
baby is ill or in pain, you must find the cause of the problem, but if
baby is fussy and cranky because they are tired, then soothing, calming
music is your answer.
People tend to
underestimate the power of simple things. In this case, the
research is there: playing and singing soothing music to your
baby, both before and after birth, creates a bond that is the foundation
of healthy relationships. Many new mothers are unsure about their
mothering skills. With this CD, the mother can familiarize herself
with many of the well-known, classic lullabies, sung by generations of
mothers and grandmothers (and fathers, brothers, aunts and others!) and
then sing them herself to her new baby. The CD can also be
played for baby at other times just by itself. The research documents
that lullabies:
- Create a sonic bond of love and caring, even before birth
- Ensure that baby comes into world knowing mother's voice and associating that with being loved and cared for
With preemies, this is
even more critical.
Amazingly, when Mom sings to baby the effect
is:
- Stabilized blood pressure
- Stabilized body temperature
- Stabilized pulse and heart rate
Resulting in:
- Less time in NICU
- Faster weight gain
- Healthier baby at discharge from NICU
These same lullabies will provide comfort and oftentimes instantaneous quieting of fussy and fretting babies.
Dr. Cash is a clinical musicologist and mother of three daughters, all of whom heard these lullabies before and after birth. All three are now professional musicians or artists.
