[@laliday]

Not all babies respond to that. For some babies this would be overstimulating. A face massage sometimes worked on one of mine, but she didn't always want that. As a parent I listened. Sometimes I had to rock and sing to her for 40 minutes, but once she was asleep she'd stay asleep until 6am. Then we'd nurse and read and back to sleep for another 90 minures. My other baby fell asleep very fast without rocking or singing, but she woke up 1-3 times a night, and didn't take long naps. Sleep consultants can help figure out the best sleep pattern, but every baby is different. The best thing any parent can do is get to know their baby through obervation. Take time, observe their behavior, don't make assumptions too quickly. If their naps are long and/or late, baby will have a later bedtime naturally or they'll wake up more often at night.

If only as Early years teachers could understand what it is best for our children , not for us, our practice would improve dramatically. Listen to the child, if pushes your hand is not right you keep doing. Observation, try what the child likes, respect their decisions, and NOT. base your practice in what everyone does, always think am I doing right? How much I understand about the sleeping process and how body works and what happen when a child is sleeping? RESEARCH,RESEARCH,RESEARCH. OBSERVATION AND THEN ASSESSMENT. You are going to be an amazing teacher.

Very interesting. I was very in tune with my son and followed these strategies (no pacifier though) to put him to sleep intuitively. We also did elimination communication. He pretty much always blew up his diapers when I was about to change them once we got home from the hospital so that’s how we got started on that before I ever even knew about it. I started looking into it and reading up on it when we’d already been doing it for months. Also, I find the calmer I was and my presence was (and still is), the calmer my kids respond. Good sleep is so important for everyone. Best tip my midwife gave me: sleep when your baby sleeps.

Timing is everything!

[@cerinameresca9338]

OMG, it worked out from the the first trie, even if my 2 weeks baby girl she's not asleep after I feed her and change her and I swaddle and put her in the crib and she stays calm until she sleeps by herself, I can sleep as well, thank you ❤️

[@marthaeileen]

And how about now?? How did you manage the next months until now? Still works? Mine is 3 months rn

[@cerinameresca9338]

​@@marthaeileen hello Martha , omg I even forgot about , honestly , I remember I was so happy about discovering this practice but sometimes would work sometime ,sometimes no, when she was 3 month I discover she had silent reflux so maybe that was the factor that disturbed her sleep ,my girl she's almost a year in few days hahah , I remember that nothing was working when she was new-born, until she was 4/5 ,months she started sleeping the whole night , hang in there ,very soon will be better , my only advice regarding the sleep if I may .. I have learned on my on skin... the most important is to be consistent , have a good routine , no matter what practice you choose what is best for you, consistency makes everything easier. Best wishes!

It just worked with my baby, thanks for sharing

[@iamthatiam44444]

My mum said she did this to me as a baby, and I would always riggle and fight to get out of it. Now I have panick attacks if I get my feet trapped in the sheets or am restricted in any way, shape, or form🫤

I thought she would say something I didn't know already. Every parent knows about he swaddling. That's what they tell you at the hospital too. For me, the most useful tips came from the video/ book Happiest Baby on the Block.

[@iihsamat]

Thanks for the great video :) The side lowering is an amazing tip. How long do you wait before placing them in the crib? My baby likes to feed before bed and has the tendency to have tummy issues so I hold him upright for 30 min before I even attempt to put him down. Otherwise he wakes up quickly due to a stomach ache (I don't always successfully burp him) or because he has spitup.

Thank you so much, new dad!!🎉

Thank you so much 😭❤️he went to sleep quick ash

The way she wasn’t holding the baby’s head was really bothering me

[@smokeyangelav]

Same and I don’t know about bouncing a baby to that extent either.

[@tamalicious8113]

Exactly what i was thinking. Shaken baby syndrome. A bit rough. Then saying put baby on the side to stay asleep but they cut the camera really quick. That baby didnt look like he was gonna stay sleep lol

[@raspberryjamz]

@tamalicious shaken baby syndrome is actually a myth. It only happens with violent force. You would have to vigorously shake a baby with violence for that to happen. You should look into it, it’s quite interesting

[@tamalicious8113]

@@raspberryjamz lol Maybe you should look it up on Google. Shaken baby syndrome is NOT a myth. You have to shake a baby violently for that to happen. I'm just saying it was a bit rough. I would not be that rough with my babies. Yes I do have children, 10 actually. Thanks for your concern

[@raspberryjamz]

@tamalicious that’s literally exactly what I said. People think shaken baby syndrome happens when you just shake your baby a little like in the video. That’s the myth. Here’s the google definition since I did look it up for you & I have myself done prior research on it. It’s literally exactly what I said, but since you recommended I search it: “ MYTH: Shaken baby syndrome occurs after multiple episodes of violent shaking and abuse. FACT: Severe brain injury and death can be caused by a single violent episode of shaking. The most common reason for this violent shaking episode is caregiver frustration and anger over an infant's prolonged or inconsolable crying.” Did you read it? VIOLENT SHAKING. Which is exactly what I said. She is not violently shaking her baby here. The force needed for trauma to occur would have to be from intentional abuse. I’ve raised babies too, just because you popped out 10 doesn’t mean you’re a supreme being who knows all. I’m just here trying to let others know that shaken baby syndrome is RARE and that if a new parent shakes their baby a little it’s normal and not going to kill their child. No need for new parents to freak out over something that is likely to happen. But if they have PPD/PPP and feel rage stirring THEN they have to worry about shaken baby syndrome and should indeed get help. Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.
