My daughter is six weeks now and I feel like weβve gotten a pretty good handle on the day-to-day stuff. I have another three months of parental leave. What advice or recommendations does parentcaster have for this unique period of time? Any regrets? https://i.imgur.com/hDitOWM.jpg

This is around the beautiful moment where she begins to smile Big thing I learned was that this was a key landmark for when she begins to develop habits, especially around sleep What I wish I did at this point was prime my daughter to fall asleep on her own at this point. Saves you more sleepless nights down the road

Conceptually we all learn how to fall asleep on our own. Iβd start with closely watching when your daughter is starting to get sleepy. At that point go through your sleep ritual and just put her in the bassinet awake. Little bit drowsy is good. Donβt want her to be just about knocked out
