Every parent probably intuits this, whether they consciously realize it or not. The #1 cause of babies crying [that isn't pay or hunger]: overstimulation & a need for sleep to "reset".


I think most would intuitively attribute that to sleep restoring energy levels so the baby feels better, not anything to do with memory.


The main reason is probably is need to be calm while the body is experiencing that level of growth. You wouldn't want to build a house with constant earthquake I guess.
