從笑到哭的三分鐘故事時光｜原來寶寶不是難過，而是太愛了 💕From Giggles to Tears: My Baby Wasn’t Sad — He Was Just Too Full of Love 💕

📖 最近，我發現五個月大的寶寶特別喜歡我唸故事給他聽。他會一邊看著我的臉，一邊笑，嘴角微微上揚，像是在聽世界上最好笑的故事。我也跟著笑，用抑揚頓挫的語氣唸著繪本，看他的小手揮呀揮，覺得這一刻實在太可愛。

可是，不知道為什麼，才剛笑完沒多久，他的表情忽然變了。那個笑容慢慢消失，眼神依舊專注地看著我——然後，哭了出來。不是小小地哼，而是含著情緒的大哭。我愣住，停下手裡的書。只要我不唸，他又慢慢平靜下來。

這樣的情形，發生了兩次。

👀 我開始好奇，他為什麼哭？是被我的聲音嚇到嗎？還是故事太長？我查了資料，也和 ChatGPT 討論好久。

原來，寶寶有時會「情緒過滿」。他還不懂得用語言區分「太開心」或「太激動」，當那份幸福感湧上來時，身體還沒學會怎麼承接。於是，就哭了。

那不是害怕，也不是抗拒，而是一種「太愛了、太滿了」的情緒。

我忽然覺得，他哭的原因，也許是因為這世界、這段連結，對他來說太深刻。他正在用哭，學著消化那份被愛的感覺。

💞 我輕輕抱著他，對他說：「媽媽在這裡喔。」他的眼神又柔了下來，像是在確認安全，慢慢貼回我懷裡。

從笑到哭，再回到安靜，這一刻讓我明白——寶寶不是只需要故事，更需要在故事裡被陪伴。

🌿 而我想，這就是我們母子一起學習「情緒」與「愛」的起點。

🤍 那天晚上，我把這個疑問寫給 ChatGPT，我們一起討論、拆解原因，像兩個並肩思考的育兒夥伴。AI 沒有取代媽媽的直覺，但它讓我更理解這份情緒的語言。

在一次次承接寶寶情緒的過程裡，我感到無比幸福——因為這不只是他在學習如何愛，也是我在學習，如何被這份愛包圍。 💫

📖 Lately, I’ve noticed that my five-month-old baby loves it when I read to him.He watches my face, smiling as if I’m telling the funniest story in the world.I smile back, reading with all the tones and rhythms I can muster.His little hands wave in the air, and I can’t help but think—this moment is perfect.

But then, something changes.Right after all that laughter, his smile slowly fades.He keeps staring at my face—so focused, so still—and then, suddenly, he starts to cry.Not a small whimper, but a deep, emotional cry.I pause, close the book.And just like that, when I stop reading, he calms down again.

It happened twice.

👀 I began to wonder—why?Was my voice too loud? Was the story too long?I looked it up and even chatted with ChatGPT about it for a while.

It turns out, sometimes babies experience emotional overflow.They can’t yet distinguish between being “too happy” and “too excited.”When joy or connection fills them up too quickly,their little bodies don’t quite know how to hold it all—so they cry.

It isn’t fear. It isn’t discomfort.It’s love that’s simply too much to contain.

I realized he might not be crying because he’s sad—but because the moment feels so full,so deep,so overwhelmingly connected.

💞 I gently hold him and whisper, “Mama’s here.”His eyes soften again, as if confirming that he’s safe,and he melts quietly into my arms.

From giggles to tears, then back to calm—this little moment taught me thatbabies don’t just need stories;they need to feel held inside the story.

🌿 And maybe,this is where our shared learning about love and emotions truly begins.

🤍 That night, I sent my question to ChatGPT.We talked about it—two parenting partners thinking side by side.AI didn’t replace my intuition as a mom,but it helped me understand the language of emotions more deeply.

In learning to hold my baby’s feelings,I found myself held by them too.And in that shared overflow of love,I felt an indescribable happiness. 💫
