Why my kid is crying...

[purple]

I spotted a thread like this when I was lurking another BMB and thought it might be fun for a change.

[sabrinaml]

Because he's tired but wanted to get up before the sun today.
Because he's hungry, but doesn't want his bottle.
Because moms not holding him.

[purple]

The usual answer here is either, "Because she's tired and cross about it," or "Because she's tried to perform some feat of impossible gymnastics and banged her head because she's eight months old."

However, we had a doozy today. She asked to go in the Jumperoo, so I put her in the Jumperoo and she burst into tears.

My Kid was crying because:

* I wont let her pull the dogs fur
* Daddy wanted to sleep in and the baby woke up an hour earlier then usual, so she had to wait until he could make a bottle (I was walking out the door for work so I couldn't go back up stairs and nurse her)

Yesterday it was because:
* She woke up from a nap and decided she wanted to cry
* The balloon that Pop Pop gave her floated away and he wasn't paying attention to
* Because I'm changing her diaper
* Because even though I am ready with a spoon full of food to feed her, she decides to look away and then gets angry that she isnt eating

In the last day or two DS has cried because:
- He couldn't get spaghetti in his mouth fast enough
- He wasn't allowed to eat my phone
- He wasn't allowed to eat the remote
- He tried reaching for a toy from sitting and then face planted onto the wood floor
- The dog ran by him too fast
- His cousin was pouting
- Some completely unexplained reason from 11-12 last night - probably he had been letting mom and dad sleep a little too well lately.

This is funny.

M cries because:
- we put him on his belly
-he rolls on his belly and then gets pissed he needs to roll back.
- we don't let him eat the remote/cell phone
-he wants to go to sleep but is overtired.
- every morning after 4, just because.
-we stop picking up the placemat that he loves to throw on the floor.

[heartofglass]

-He was sitting in the sink and turned the cold water into himself....
-The dog ran away from him.
-I tried wipe the snot off his face.
-He rolled around in the bed and got stuck between two pillows.
-I can't get my boob out fast enough for him when he's hangry.

[mrsmonogrammed]

Yesterday evening C cried if she wasn't touching me....it was pretty funny to see her try and reach things while still touching me:P

Other reasons she's cried the past few days-
Mommy left the room
She has to go in her car seat (also includes bonus arching her back)
She has to get her diaper changed before eating "breakfast"
She can't decide which toy to play with so she'd rather not play with anything.

[musicfrk2002]

-he wanted to be picked up and held, but also not picked up and held
-he wasn't tired yet was asleep 3 minutes later
-I wouldn't hold his arms and walk him all over the place
-the toy scared him
-we were playing with sticks at the library and it was time to put them away
-he didn't want to lie down while I was changing his diaper and clothes

[mirage86]

• Because he is sitting and doesn't know how to get down without falling
• His face and hands need to be washed after he eats
• Mommy put him down
• He is getting a new diaper or outfit on
• His nose is getting cleared so he can breathe
Bonus: for unexplained reasons, he had to cry about six times in an hour between cat naps in the car ride home last night.

[alayne926]

Haha!

~I wiped her nose for the millionth time this morning
~She didn't want to be held, but didn't want to be put down
~Big Brother jumped on the couch and she didn't like it.
~The dog licked the air near her and she didn't like that either.

[Bluedaisy]

+ the bottle is not ready immediately-or-I set the bottle down on the coffee table so I can pick him up.
+ he's over tired

[jillywilly]

+1 on the nose, I forgot about that one. DS actually recognizes the nose frieda/bulb sucker now, and will try to launch himself out of my arms when he sees us coming with it. Apparently a concussion is preferable to having one's nose cleared.

[littlemissgrump]

It's so hard being a baby! Lol!

-I left the room
-I walked by him without picking him up
-I won't let him play with the dog food /water
-Won't let him chew on power cords
-Won't let him play with Daddy's new and very expensive stereo equipment
-We put him in his crib
-Won't let him crawl into the bathroom
-We had to hold him down to change his diaper so he doesn't launch off the changing table
-He wanted the knife
-He wanted up and/or down
-Milk isn't ready 10 seconds before he decided he needed it.

It's been a rough week! Haha!

[mrsdee1982]

* I won't let her chew the phone charger
* The dog is too close
* The dog is too far
* She can see the dog
* She can't see the dog
* Mommy is trying to hold her
* Mommy is trying to put her down
* Mommy is trying to keep her from injuring herself with some sort of baby gymnastic move she's attempting

[erbear]

- I won't let her chew on my phone charger.
- I won't let her chew on my phone.
- I put food on her tray and not directly in her mouth.
- I wouldn't let her drink my sparkling water.
- I let H put his head on my lap.
- I wouldn't get out of the shower and hold her.
- wiping her crusty nose or face in general

[baytosa2013]

C cries because

Getting dressed
Wiping face and hands
Touching her while she's trying to stand - stop it mom I do it in my own!
No phones in the mouth
No chasing the cat
No chewing on the rubber play mat

[billyhorrible]

*Because he can't play with the remote control
*Because he can't play with my phone
*Because he can't rip up LBB's artwork
*Because he can't play in the dog's water
*Because he can't eat the dog's food
*Because he can't go outside by himself
*Because everyone else has a fork and he doesn't
*Because we've been in the car too long
*Because he wants the DCP to hold him and I put him on the floor
*Because everyone left the room
*Because I'm not holding him
*Because he wants MY food, not his
*Because I won't let him eat on my lap
*Because we're cleaning up and putting the toys away
*Because he wants LBB's food, not his

[Widget123]

*Put him down (vs. carrying him)
*Put him in the carseat
*Changed his clothes
*Tried to wipe his nose
*Tried to put him to bed
*In the jumperoo too long
*We walked out of the room to get something

[wegrowsheep]

Because I'm holding him.
Because I'm not holding him.
Because naptime without a boob in your mouth is not fun.
Because I wouldn't let him eat random things the older kids leave on the floor.

DS1 cried because I wouldn't let him watch tv all day.
And because he had to eat broccoli.
And brush his teeth.

DD cried because she didn't get play time before schoolwork.

[Deleted]

Because i took him for his morning walk. And he decided he was too tired and since reclining in the stroller was not acceptable we are home on the sofa where i am trying to help him sleep.

Also because i changed his poopy diaper.

[bookninja]

Because she was sitting and leaned over too far and fell over.
Because I had to wipe her face/nose/hands.
Because I was supposed to know she was done nursing and remove my breast from anywhere near her.
Because of baby Motrin. And possibly the fact that DH and I have to basically completely immobilize her to get any in her mouth.
