(you got to bear this non stop parenting casts from me for a few months)

I am finding it hard to soothe the baby to sleep after a feed. He is well fed - but still gets fussy - wanting something more. 

Holding him on my chest or shoulder and gently rocking him isn’t soothing him like it used to the first couple of weeks. 

Any tips/techniques that could help me here?

Currently trying some white noise sounds, and trying to keep it calm and not too much light. 

Used a pacifier a couple of times - but hesitating using it frequently.

if the pacifier works, use it! nipple confusion is kind of myth, the issue is more flow rate with bottles, so the way to protect breastfeeding while also using bottles is to stick with newborn teats and never upgrade to faster flow. pacifiers are no prob

some other options: bouncing on a yoga ball, firmly patting baby's butt
