Why Does Baby Cry Before Passing Urine Or Stool?

My baby girl who is 7 weeks old cry inconsolably before she pass urine or stool . what might be the reason and what needs to be done in such case. She had small diaper rash and we are using rash cream every time the diaper is changed. If its the rash problem she should cry after she pee or poop but she cries before she pee and poop. Once its released ,she calms down. Please suggest.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Dear Sir/ Madam,

Thank you for posting your query at healthcaremagic.com

The cry is definitely due to diaper. I advice you to use cream which is used before putting the diaper(ie B4 cream) and also rash free cream after cleaning the pee and poo.

Keep clean and dry. Frequent wiping with dry wipes can cause abrasion around the discomfort to the baby., that is why they cry. Ensure wipe is gentle, soft and with Luke warm water.

If still persist consult pediatrician and who will advise on further course of action.

Hope this help your little one.

With best wishes,
Dr. Vishwanath Patil
