You should not punish a newborn for crying. You should investigate and find the reason for the crying. This could be anything from colic, dirty diaper, not being burped correctly after feeding and the list goes on and on. A newborn doesn't cry for no reason and is attempting to communicate in it's limited 'vocabulary.' Never punish a child for anything that is beyond its control and, to a newborn, EVERYTHING is beyond their control.
