"A Swedish study, published in JCPP Advances, took questionnaire responses from nearly 1,000 parents of twins, at 2 and 5 months... Genetics accounted for 50% of crying duration and settle ability at 2 months, and up to 70% at 5 months." www.parents.com…
Genetic factors account for much of the variation in how long infants cry, while environmental influences play a larger role in nighttime awakenings and settling during early months. doi.org/g9sjvt
