New DCG started and all she does is cry

[gramma]

this dcg is crying with no tears. its crazy, its like she's making herself do it and every oncein awhile she stops and plays and then its like she suddenly remembers she's supposed to be crying and starts again. I have always used the CIO method for sleeping but she is soooooo loud and non stup its driving me nuts. Just reading these boards and looks like we are not alone. I dont understand why a child would cry all day when they are kids around playing and I'm trying non stop to encourage her to join, singing songs, playing music and she chooses to cry instead especially when she was so much better yesterday. She played and laughed and smiled. I dont get it. Best of luck to you as well. I hope things calm down on your end.

You should be glad yours plays sometimes...I haven't seen mine play even once...he is too busy crying and crawling after me and clinging to my leg...I have to put him in an excersaucer quite often just to avoid knocking him over when I move around the room! The only time I have seen him even moderately content is on the swing at the park...but even then after some time the crying starts again. And yes, mine cries with no tears too...just non-stop screaming!
