I'm taking a class in school and we have to carry around one of those computerized babies, It's a doll but it acts as a real newborn

And I swear to god I'm ready to throw it out the window!
It never stops crying!
it's crying right now and I can't get it to stop, I've tried feeding it,
changing it's diaper, and ignoring it. All it does is cry louder.

ughhhh
you know what it did last night?
It randomly started crying at 3 in the morning! I tried ignoring it but it got louder and louder, until my mom woke up and yelled at me to do something with it.
UGHH I'm never having kids.

I swear if the damn thing wasn't worth a thousand bucks, It would be out my window.

So if there's any moms out there, how do you get a real baby to stop crying?

If he thinks he's hungry then he likely has a tummy soreness. little ones repond to soreness by technique of feeding and crying. He might want to have somewhat bit colic. After each and every feed burp right now and assured he has gotten rid of each and every of the wind. If he's truly undesirable quit 0.5 way by ability of the feed and burp him and then end feeding him and burp him back. if you're breast feeding, it pay to look at your nutrition plan, such issues as cabbage, onion, garlic, brossel sprouts, baked beans, espresso and too a lot sugar contained in the milk will supply him and disenchanted tummy even with if he's wonderful in the course of the day. if you're bottle feeding examine that he hasn't were given an hypersensitivity to the milk or that he's not lactose intorent, you are able to also purchase a formula that enables colic little ones. also bypass on your chemist and observe in the experience that they have got something ease colic and wind that would help him. If this does no longer help settle him down then take him to make sure a wellbeing practitioner there will be something else incorrect. also attempt getting a sturdy night time common so as that he can bypass to sleep more suitable undemanding and stay asleep longer. supply him a dazzling warmth bath with some johnsons lavender bedtime bath and allow him stay in as long as he like or until eventually the water receives chilly. Take him out and wrap him in a huge mushy towl and promises him a dazzling rubdown. gown him as favourite and gently wrap him in a mushy blanket and then feed him the relax can help you him bypass to sleep. allow him have a dummy if he nevertheless desires convenience after his feed. supply him a huge cuddle and placed him to sleep in darkish room with some quiet track taking area in. also examine that his nappy isn't too tight as this can make his tummy soreness worse i am hoping this permits each and every of the perfect

Ummm, newborns will randomly wake up in the night and start crying. So that computer baby is pretty much on the spot.



Act like this is a real baby. It might be a computer, but it's a lot better than a sack of flour/sugar like the old days.



Cuddle it, hold it, sing to it, whatever you need to do.

Calm down, breathe, okay now try

rocking it

turn on soothing instrumental music

cuddle with it

and remember that those dolls have little chips in them so the teacher knows if you ignored it so don't do that unless you want to fail!

Rock it (if its the ones i think they are, be careful with the head!!)

Cuddle it

doest it have a soother?

How long did you hold the bottle to its mouth?

It usualy takes a few for it to respond..



Just remember the teacher can tell EVERYTHING that you do to the baby!

Ignoring it too much will cause you to fail!!







Good luck!!

Have you tried rocking it? That use to put Tristan right to sleep along with car rides and walking around the block. Gently pat it's back. Talk to it and bounce it on your lap for a little bit.

Welcome to motherhood. Babies cry all the time whether you like it or not.



I'm not a mom, but anyway, try cuddling with it. Or rocking it slowly back and forth. But in real life, that's what binky's are for :)

Bounce him, Rock him, Give him a pacifier (dummy). Cuddle him. Wind him- After feeding a baby you need to wind it, so it burps, pat and rub its back.

try rocking it...it might sound/look stupid rocking a fake baby, but give it a try if you've done everything else. i did this project back in school, but it didn't cry all the time...
