Dr. Penelope Leach, Baby Care expert and author of several popular parenting books, claims that leaving a baby to cry without getting no response can put her at risk of getting a brain damage. She said that crying for long periods can increase the level of the stress hormone in the baby’s body. Such can then cause damage to the baby’s brain.
Dr. Leach also appealed to mothers who believe that allowing the baby to cry alone for twenty minutes can help them develop a sleep pattern. Though very popular, the baby care expert firmly believes that it is unsafe. Furthermore, she notes that babies are still not capable of learning how to regulate their sleeping patterns.
