[quote=Anonymous]I charted poops/diapers with my first kid. When I had my second I was able to laugh at myself about this. You just know what to do. The learning curve is steep but it only takes a few weeks in most cases. Unless your baby has a feeding problem that impacts growth. Or is colicky/a continual crier. If your baby cries (as long as it's not making you depressed/anxious), just pick up the baby. It's basically just a safety thing for their survival. You can snuggle, baby wear, have dad baby wear or whatever makes baby confident someone is right there with them. Sometimes they can be soothed just by having a hand on some part of their body while they are snoozing. Swaddling really works well for a lot of criers. Give it a try. [/quote]
