Crying baby on the plane

I know a lot of people will have different opinions on what I’m about to say but please read this with an open mind. Baby’s crying in public is looked at in a very annoying way and people tend to make faces when they hear or see a baby cry. Recently, I was flying from Arunachal to Delhi ( it’s a 3 hour flight ) and my baby started crying after an hour. She got irritated because I was holding her in my arms ( small babies don’t like that ) she is 5 months old. Infants like to play more on bed or floor because they discover so many new things about moving their hands , legs, kicking, rolling over etc. everyone gave me a death stare at the plane, she stopped crying after 20 minutes. All the gaze from strangers being fed up of the baby and with all the anxiety. I kept crying the whole flight, and after coming back home I cried the whole night questioning my marriage my life my career everything that I wanted to end my life. My point is, babies are part of public places, they are humans, they are scared all the time, they can only express their emotions with crying ( if it’s reflux, stomach pain, ear pain ) due to air pressure in the cabin. After the flight landed, my baby started to cry again, and people were still in the queue unbothered won’t let me go out of the plane !! I just want to put it out there, next time you are in a situation where a baby is crying next to you, Ofcourse you can’t help, but please know that mother is dying inside and it’s not even under her control. Just don’t make faces, act annoyed, just pass a smile ( specially older women who can actually help by saying it’s alright to a new mother because they have been there ). If you can’t pass a smile then atleast don’t stare or be annoyed.
