No tears while crying

2025-02-06 10:52:44
My baby is 9 months old, and doesn't get tears while crying. He has never got tears since birth, but doctor said it automatically gets resolved with time. He is now 9 months old. Sometimes I see his eyes are watery but tears don't drain out. Ofcourse I am not wanting my child to cry but usually I have seen all babies getting tears when crying. Is this normal ?
