Showing love for mom

By De Ji YuePublished 3 years ago 4 min read

The baby is the mother's world, and the mother is the baby's everything. For the mother, there is no happier time than when the baby is still under the care of the mother before going to school. At this time, the baby only has eyes for the mother. The mother, too, wants to give her baby all the goodness in the world.

Unfortunately, there are good things and bad things, when the baby shows some behavior towards the mother, the mother will be angry to the point of wanting to hit the baby.

The baby always tugs on the mother's hair, the mother is so annoyed that she cuts her hair short

A mother said, after the birth of a small baby, she has been quite happy. However, because the birth of the baby hurt the body, hair loss is more serious, and the mother cherished their hair. However, the baby does not know what to do, and every time he plays with his mother, he likes to tug on her hair, and when the mother stops, the baby does not understand.

Watching the baby's hair to the mouth inside, the mother is angry and funny, want to control, and can not control. In the end, the mother could not resist and finally made up her mind to go to the hairdresser to get a short haircut. The baby saw his mother's short hair, did not adapt to it for a while and cried out.

As a result, when sleeping, the baby did not know what was going on and subconsciously went to tug on his mother's short hair. The mother was annoyed, then it was a slap on the baby's face, and the baby was beaten and cried. Seeing the baby cry, in the mother's heart is also quite difficult. The mother blamed herself while picking up the baby to coax the baby while apologizing to the baby: "Sorry, baby, mommy was wrong." After a long day, the baby finally broke into tears and smiled, and the mother was relieved.

However, the mother of the baby is a little confused, why does the baby always love to yank the mother's hair it? This kind of behavior is annoying.

Crying

Why does the baby love to pull the mother's hair?

Some mothers feel that their babies are "attacking their mothers" by tugging on their hair. But in fact, it's just because the baby wants to be close to the mother and wants to make out with her, but doesn't know how to express it. When the baby is tugging on the mother's hair, the mother will make an expressive response and will turn her face to the baby and look at the baby squarely. At this point, the baby usually feels that he or she has succeeded in getting the mother's attention. The baby will smile happily when the mother sees him.

In addition, the baby will feel warm and secure when he or she is holding the mother's object in his or her hand while tugging her hair. The baby will seek emotional comfort in the mother's body in the way he or she can out of emotional need.

If the mother feels very annoyed by the baby pulling her hair, she can do this: try to control her inner anger, smile with the baby and pretend to cry out in pain. Then, gently break the child's fingers and hold her hand tightly in the baby's hand. The baby will be smiling and happy to snuggle with the mother again.

The baby is very simple, wanting the mother will not express, wanting to be close to the mother, and not grasping the correct behavior, is likely to cause the mother misunderstanding. Some mothers may mistakenly feel that their babies are deliberately working against them and are deliberately attacking their mothers. The mother is thinking wrong.

The common manifestation of a baby's love for mom, mom must not misunderstand the baby

Babies are not very good at talking and are used to expressing themselves with their behavior. When the baby loves the mother and wants to be close to her, the baby may use an action to pamper her. It's just a pity that some pampering behaviors seem aggressive and mom experiences them and is not used. For example,

licking mom's face

Like tugging on mom's hair, some babies love to pick mom's face. The baby finds it funny to take a step closer to mom. However, the mother feels that the baby is full of aggression and is scratching her face, very rude. This is simply because the baby is small, the strength of the picking face is not well grasped, and it looks more violent.

After the baby grows teeth, when they want to get close to their mother, they may go up to their mouth and move their mouth to bite their mother first. For example, bite the mother's face, bite the mother's arm, bite the mother distracted. The mother can't wait to push the baby away and slap the baby twice. However, the act of biting the mother is the nature of the baby, it looks like the baby is attacking the mother, but near the mother.

Therefore, when the baby appears such behavior, the mother does not yell at the baby, not too serious, just the baby likes to chew the parts of things, disinfection, and clean, to avoid the baby eating bacteria in the stomach on the good. At the same time, if the mother wants to stop the baby's nibble, you can stare at the baby with serious eyes, and the baby will feel very strange, stop nibbling mother.

Other babies, in addition to tugging at their mother's hair, nibbling on her, picking her face. You may also climb on the mother and step on her to play. Indeed, some of the baby's behavior is quite annoying. However, these behaviors show that the baby's heart is very fond of the mother. It's a pity that the baby can't express, can't say clearly, and can only use the wrong action to express love! I hope moms, do not be too angry!
