Baby Temper Tantrums- 4 ways to get your child to cooperate

Getting your baby into his car seat (or out of his clothes) used to be easy, but now he cries and flails. What gives?

By around 6 months, he may no longer cry just in response to needing something. He's now able to express what he wants, which means he might cry or arch his back when he's angry. Getting your baby to snap out of it can be tricky — he's no longer as easily amused by your distractions.

To help him chill:
Show some empathy. Try something like "I know, you don't want your diaper changed." He won't understand the words, but he'll understand the tone of your voice and actions.

Try a new kind of distraction. If jingling keys and making funny faces aren't cutting it, a song can soothe, as can a little back rub or a change of scenery.

Keep calm. Sometimes babies throw tantrums because they're overstimulated, so taking a break from all your make-the-baby-smile tricks might actually help.

Stay a step ahead. If you know your baby is fascinated with the TV remote, make sure it's out of sight. If he screams in the high chair, let him eat with a lovey on the tray (more laundry for you, but less screaming!).

kebelakangan ni irfan asyik batuk2 dan selsema..ramai yg suggest suh bagi honey kat irfan...abah pun dah nak bagi honey kat irfan...mama kata NO!!!..tak boleh bagi honey for babies under 1 year old...bahaya..ni article yang mama copy dari http://freshbaby.com/healthy_eating/FoodsNotGood.cfm

Some foods are not good for babies and should not be Introduced until the child is older. These foods include:

Honey and Corn Syrup. Both of these foods should be avoided until your baby is at least 12 months old. They contain bacterial spores that can cause a form of botulism.

Choking hazards: The following list . of foods is dangerous due to your baby's lack of teeth and lack of mouth/tongue coordination; offering these too early can result in choking. It is recommended to hold off introducing these foods until your child is 2-3 years old.
Nuts (other than finely ground)
Peanut butter
Caramel candy
Gum
Whole grapes
Raw hard fruits and vegetables
Chunks of meat
Pieces of bacon
Hot dogs
Sunflower seeds
Raisins
Popcorn
Potato or corn chips
Hard candy

Foods high in nitrates: Foods that are high in nitrates can cause anemia and should not be included in your child's diet until the age of 8 months. High nitrates foods can be either vegetables or meats. Here is a list: Vegetables: beets, carrots, green beans, spinach, and collard greens; Meats: hot dogs, cured ham, bacon, bologna, and salami.

Sugar, salt and caffeine: As general rule foods containing high amounts of salt, sugar, or caffeine usually do not contain many vitamins and minerals. Stay away from them.
