Unsolicited Advice and a Wish
Date: 2022-09-15 05:55 pm (UTC)The Australian baby whisperer saved me. She has perfect pitch and figured out that all babies (regardless of nationality/language/etc) made the same noises - basically 5 different cries depending on what they needed (food, changed, itchy, burpy, something else!). Our problem was we weren't burping long enough so crying would start again and then we'd try feeding and changing again with no success. When I figured out the system, I started getting an extra hour of sleep a night! It saved me. I also got good enough to be able to tell why babies in the store were crying from 3 aisles over but I never bothered those moms! She has an official website but I was able to learn with free youtube links. https://www.dunstanbaby.com/
And a wish for you and your baby -
May your grandchildren's grandchildren tell stories about the blessings of your lives!
