Baryta carbonica vs Borax Children
A feature which distinguishes Baryta from Borax children is the manner
in the child is frightened. The Baryta is scared of anything strange, while
Borax is scared of any sudden noise. Also the Borax child has not the same
degree of inability to learn. Rather, he is simply idle.
[Henry C. Allen, M.D. – 1836-1909]
Child awakes suddenly, screaming and grasping sides of cradle, without
apparent cause (Apis, Cina, Stram.).
[William H. Burt]
Great heat and dryness of the mouth and fauces. The child cannot nurse, the aphthous inflammation is so painful. Sour, greenish diarrhoea.

[Ananda Zaren]
Borax-Babies: „Sie mögen nicht so oft liebkost werden und können stundenlang alleine in ihrem Laufgitter spielen o. liegen passiv und desinteressiert. Sie tun sich manchmal schwer ihre Gefühle zu zeigen und schreien z.B. nur, wenn sie Hunger haben o. ihre Windel nass ist. Sie möchten nicht immer Menschen um sich haben und mögen es nicht, berührt o. angesprochen zu werden. ...
Neigung sich zu erschrecken in Verbindung mit Traurigkeit. Sehr große Empfindlichkeit (mehr als andere Natriums) und Nervosität.
Reaktionsmangel, traurig und zurückgezogen“.
[Y. Agrawal]
Infant frequently cries out in its
sleep, and seriously grasps its mother, as if been frightened by a dream.
[Vithoulkas]
Borax is a remedy that is used primarily in children in cases where they
exhibit < from downward motion. For example, when the mother is in the act
of laying the child down onto the bed, it may rise up in its sleep and cry out
in fright. Lifting up an infant’s feet to change a nappy will aggravate the
child, who will start to shout.
Borax children in general have a tendency to shout or scream rather than
cry. An infant being laid down will start and throw up its hands as if afraid
of falling, and some nights it may be impossible to put the child down at all.
When laying the child down on the couch or in the cradle, it cries and
clings to the mother. Children who are lifted or rocked may suffer from
arrested respiration.
They cannot bear a downward motion, even in sleep. When dandling a child
up and down or when rocking it in the arms, you may find that it makes an
anxious face during the downward motion.
Exhibit another important symptom, fright during sleep. They may scream
and shout during sleep. Children wake up suddenly, screaming and grasping the
sides of the cradle, without apparent cause.
They start in sleep, as if frightened. Sleepy.
The child at the breast sleeps more than usual, but wakes frequently.
The child tosses about, cries until 4 h., frequently out of its sleep,
and in the morning is in a whining mood.
An infant cries out of sleep and anxiously grasps its mother, as if
frightened by a dream.
The infant frequently cries out in its sleep and anxiously grasps its
mother, as if it had been frightened by a dream. Frequent waking in the
newborn, and screaming during fever when the head becomes hot.
Another interesting point in these children is that they cry and shriek
with pain before urinating or passing a stool. You may find cases of colic in
babies, after suppressed aphthae. They suddenly scream and kick and equally
suddenly turn quiet for ten to twenty minutes, and then start again. They want
to be carried about but the fits are not prevented. In cases of enteritis the
child cries a great deal, its mouth is very sore, greenish stool passes every
hour or two, a white coat covers the tongue and inside the cheeks, and a red
eruption appears on the face.
Hot urine in the infant and burning urine in children are frequent. The
infant urinates nearly every ten or twelve minutes, and frequently cries and
screams before the urine passes. Children are so afraid to urinate, that they
almost have convulsions when the desire to urinate comes on.
Excessively nervous (noise). A slight noise will wake them up. They are
frightened on hearing a distant noise and start in every limb on hearing an
anxious cry. They start at hawking or sneezing or paper rustling. The slamming
of a door would cause the child to start and then scream with fright. The child
is frightened during thunderstorms.
Borax children may be affected by aphthae. The infant’s palate is
wrinkled and it cries frequently when nursing. The child has an aphthous sore
mouth, the ulcers bleed on eating or on touch. The mouth is very tender in
nursing children; it may be very hot, with thirst and vomiting. The child’s
mouth feels hot to mother’s nipple; the child lets
go of the nipple and cries with pain and vexation, or else refuses the
breast altogether. Children become marasmic because of the aphthous condition;
they cannot digest.
Further symptoms to be found in Borax children include: slowness in
learning to talk; weeping tearful mood at night; prolonged sleep. The child at
the breast sleeps more than usual, but wakes up frequently. Sleep fitful in
small children. Aversion to drinks. Carphology during fever. Finally, the
child’s hair becomes entangled at the tips and sticks together so that it
cannot be separated. If these bunches are cut off they form again.
The three main key-notes on which Borax is usually prescribed are:
Aggravation from downward
motion.
Fretfulness, ill-humour,
indolence and discontent before stool; but lively, contented, and cheerful
after stool.
> symptoms after 23 h.
Other key-notes:
In growing of lashes, tangled hair that sticks together.
Mouth very hot in aphthae.
Greenish stool day and night.
Tip of nose shining red. Red noses of young women.

when made to sit in the amusement park rides that go up and down rapidly
(Lac-c. Sanic.).
The infant weeps violently at regular intervals; but here the
characteristic is that the weeping ceases within a few minutes, and the infant
is cheerful
and playful once again (don’t confuse with Cina).
Anxious, restless, nervous and excitable (Kent).
Deep fright from sudden loud noise (Bell. Kali-c.).
Great anxiety in neonates and infants when laying them down on a bed or
in the pram (Calc. Gels.).
Loathing of the breast (may be due to the fact that milk tastes bad, not
to any physical problems in the infant).
Nervous excitability, shrieking, and crying usually lasts until 23 h.;
after that, when the child feels sleepy, the complaints slowly disappear.
