The Period of PURPLE Crying
Have you heard of the "Period of PURPLE Crying"?
The Period of PURPLE Crying begins at about 2 weeks of age and continues until about 3-4 months of age. There are other common characteristics of this phase, or period, which are better described by the acronym PURPLE. All babies go through this period. It is during this time that some babies can cry a lot and some far less, but they all go through it.
The #1 trigger for Shaken Baby Syndrome is frustration with a crying baby.
