Babies are born with basal tearing, meaning their tear ducts deliver just enough wet stuff to keep the eyes moist and healthy, and reflex tearing, the kind you get when slicing an onion or battling with a stray eyelash. Newborns do not have psychic tearing (tearing that indicates emotional distress).
It's between 2 and 4 months of age that a baby's psychic tears kick in. A trigger --- loneliness, frustration --- causes the baby's nervous system to stimulate a cranial nerve in the brain, and that in turn sends a message to the tear glands.
