(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.

putting my 6mo daughter to sleep past few months and i've been through several phases: 1) just stroller back and forth 2) stroller with white noise 3) white noise and rocking in arms - cradle position + holding her hands crossed so she doesn't move them around - if cradle doesn't work, i switch to belly hold 4) music (osts like sinbad) and rocking in arms 5) stroller and music (easier phase) 6) again music and rocking rocking with various intensity, swaying, rhythmical movements... it's all basically an endless action+observation cycle. kid before was a bit more difficult and i think swaddle helped a lot

the vaccum cleaner was my charm...I even recorded the sound to have it on my phone at all times! My son is 7 now, and still every time I vaccum, he hides under a pile of pillows on the sofa and just relaxes there...
