   E243. Why won't my baby stop crying?

   Why Won’t My Baby Stop Crying?- With Heidi Skudder A baby who won't settle. Hours of crying. Back arching. Wind. Feeding difficulties. Broken sleep. And suddenly you're Googling everything, wondering whether it's colic, reflux, an allergy or simply normal newborn behaviour. In this episode, Pip is joined by baby and parenting expert Heidi Skudder to explore what can sit underneath an uncomfortable baby, why labels like “colic” and “reflux” can sometimes stop us asking the more important question - what is actually going on? - and how parents can find a more individualised middle ground. They talk about feeding, sleep, winding, gut sensitivity, parental intuition and mental health, as well as the danger of both over-medicalising normal behaviour and over-normalising a baby who is genuinely struggling. Most importantly, this is a conversation about helping parents feel informed rather than frightened and reminding them that crying is communication, parental instincts matter, and asking for support is not a sign that you're getting it wrong. This episode is sponsored by Aptaclub.
