- As tough as it may seem, try to remain calm and positive
- Be patient as yelling back at your baby will not help.
- Remember that you are not alone in this and let it be yet another learning experience in the world of parenthood.
- Prepare for a day-out or a trip by carrying snacks and some of his favourite toys to help distract him during a bout of crying.
- Don't plan activities for when your child is normally tired or hungry; it's a recipe for disaster.
- If the crying is getting to you and you're starting to feel tense, take a deep and long breath and walk away for just a few minutes and clear your mind.
- Babies sometimes cry for no reason and there's nothing that you can do to calm them down. Keep comforting them and hopefully they’ll settle
- Use a diversion (favourite toy / a song / a way of cuddling) as quickly as possible when you see a tantrum coming on.
- Babies and toddlers cry; even when you're out in public. Don't stress and definitely don't change your method of dealing with tantrums just to keep the peace. A shift does not prove to be beneficial for your baby’s overall growth and well being.
- Bounce, swing, rock or jiggle. Any fast rhythmic movement is likely to soothe your little screamer. The more agitated they are, the more vigorous your movements should be.
