[quote=Anonymous]It’s taking like an hour to get my six week old to fall asleep. For all naps and bedtime. I’m watching wake windows, about 60-70 mins, shorter or longer makes it worse. Rocking chair and pacifier works… sometimes. Letting him cry in our arms for a few mins works… occasionally. Holding him upright, walking around with him in our arms, gripe water, even putting him down drowsy but still awake and letting him fuss/cry for 5 mins (not really comfortable with any more than that, he’s so young) - all these work every once in a while. And he’ll usually nap in the stroller so I do that once a day. But nothing seems to work consistently, I’m spending like five hours a day trying to get this child to sleep and I’m TIRED. And bored. Any suggestions? FWIW - I’m a third time mom! But my first had colic (nothing worked!) and the second could be reliably rocked to sleep in 15 mins, 90% of the time. I’ve never had a “medium” baby before, only easy and impossible. [/quote]
