A member asked:
I put baby in stroller and he was screaming so i shacked him aggressively, he stopped crying and fell asleep. whole night he slept and ate well, and this morning and day he was happy, smiling, "talking" etc. i'm scared that maybe hurt him like that?

Babies cry. That is their primary form of communication. Shaking them can trigger internal bleeding in their brain leading to damage or death. You may have escaped it with this encounter, given the normal behavior baby shows, but don't do it again, ever.
