The shush-pat Technique (get your baby to sleep)

[@Xocoa]

Amazing ❤️

How long do you persist for before trying other methods? 30 mins?

[@Baby911Helpline]

The first time can take up to an hour. The key is to persevere and not to panic as baby will sense it. If it becomes to much then the “Pick up put down method” can help.

Can this work for a 6 month old?

[@Baby911Helpline]

It can work, however, they will try to resist the first few times. So you might also need to do the pick up put down technique. It’s usually best when you start doing this in the day with the naps as you yourself will be awake and more willing to persist.

Thank you so much for your reply and for this video! We started tonight and it too 25-30 mins at bedtime. We will start with naps as well tomorrow. I can’t thank you enough for having a how to video since seeing is so much more powerful than reading. Thanks again!

@@laurenlevasseur5623 I’m so happy to know it’s working for you. You might also need to think about diet if breastfeeding as things like wheat and dairy can have an affect on their ability to sleep. If you visit my baby to bed website you could email if you need any extra help. I do a 5 minute free phone call. A lot can be done in 5 minutes.
