"babies are born three months before they're really ready for the world" To be fair I was born twenty years ago and I'm still not ready

Why am I watching this at 1am ,,, I don't have a baby and I'm single 😂

Watching this as I rock my second baby, who is 9 days old now. With my first I was wired and always trying to control everything. I regret this. With this one I'm giving us both time to adjust. I eat, rest and get help.. I'm glad when baby sleeps, but not obsessed by it. I plan my say around my babies, calm my mind & just be. Love and prayers to all parents out there - we have a most important job.

The problem isn't *getting* them to sleep, its *keeping* them asleep.

That baby was more relaxed than I’ve been in like eight years

I'll save you all a lot of time and say put your fussy newborn in a wrap carrier on your chest and go about your day. They hear your heartbeat, are snug up against you, and your walking around is exactly what they experienced in the womb. Has worked with all 4 of my kids without fail! Good luck parents💜

That’s a beautiful baby he’s rocking.

Seriously nothing is more amazing than a newborn! Hard work and all they're so adorable, tiny, and innocent.

The 19 dislikers are the babies who don't sleep and love to browsing around about them in youtube

My baby always hated being swaddled!! She wouldn’t stop squirming until she got her hands out 🤣 she was born at 36w5d, I couldn’t believe how she was so tiny yet so determined!

Oh, Tony Stark became a baby whisperer then. Okay.

The swaddling recommendation in this saved my wife and I last night. Our newborn was irritable from colic and his technique with the arms down allowed my son to calm down and sleep all night and almost immediately post feeding. He usually stats awake and has had trouble relaxing post feeding and then post diaper change. This is my new go to for the foreseeable future

*But i dont have a baby*

I’ve watched his video “the happiest baby on the block” it’s helped so much, our baby girl loves white noise and to be swaddled up, it calms her right down

This guy writes a book ‘the happiest baby on the block’ and it’s legit the best book I ever read, when I was a new mom I followed everything he said and my kid (and kids thereafter) slept like rocks from early on. I recommend the book to everyone!

At 3am in the morning... shhhhhhhhutthefuckupshhhhhhhhh...

When I was a baby I cried myself to sleep, 25 years later I still do.

None of my three kids accepted any type of pacifier. They spat them farther I thought would be possible, no matter which model I tried. But I didn't have any problems with them lying around crying, either, or not getting them to sleep. I just put them into my handsewn mei tai (for the first months heart to heart against my chest, so I could breastfeed them everywhere and at every time without any hindrances; as soon as they were able to hold their heads I carried them on my back), and got moving. They loved to be carried around, slept during me vacuuming, cleaning, going to the playground / shopping / for a walk, breastfed them as often as they wanted to, and, the most important: trusted my motherly instincts, without getting caught up in "you must let them cry", "they have to learn to sleep on their own", "you may only breastfeed every 2,5 hours", "isn't that way too hot for them to be carried like this? why don't you just put them into a stroller?" or any other well-meant tips and hints. Of course, the first days and nights are difficult for everyone, but very soon they will find their rhythm, and you don't die when you sleep for 3 hours and then have some 30-minute long naps throughout the day for some time. Hey, congratz if they sleep 8 hours from their second day on, but it's totally okay if they don't. I probably sound terribly insensitive and old-fashioned, but way too many people are just way too pampered and used to self-unfolding and just dancing to their own drum. And instead of doing summersaults around their fragile feelings, every one of us should have someone who tells him to get it together 'cause everything will be all right, and to put the grown-up-pants on once in a while.

That is SUCH a cute newborn 😍

Have raised 10 newborns, and THIS is SO important and true. Some don't need all five S's but other need them all in the extreme to settle. Babies love swaddling. Never met a baby swaddled correctly with the five S's who didn't benefit from it. They will sleep SO much longer if you swaddle them.

0:28 we learning origami bois

All of these steps were followed and put a hysterical baby to sleep within 5-10 minutes. Amazing!!.

Saved me and my husband's sanity with my our girls. I tell everyone I can about this book, and especially the football hold combined with the shushing/light bouncing. Will be forever grateful to Dr. Karp.

As a nine month along pregnant lady, I totally get why they are “born early”

I thankfully didn't struggle with my child when he was newborn. He barely cried and just made noises to let people know he's awake. If he did cry, a shush was enough. He slept so well and so did I.

Another major tip he didn’t mention to have your baby sleep like a pro is the darkness your babies room needs to be for sleeping proper. I consider myself a baby whisperer, when I had my baby at 18 I was impressed with my mother instincts at a seemingly younger age. But really the major key points I used were white noise type of things. Humidifiers and fans worked like a charm. But on top of that, making sure the sun wasn’t a thing during their slumber helped so much I couldn’t believe it. Get the kind of curtains that block out light completely, or get crazy and hang up extra blankets over the blinds. You won’t regret the extra bit of sleep you’ll be able to scrounge in the process :D

the best relax for a baby is the embrace of his mother , bc they hear the same heart pulse when he was inside

This is my second child and I still look to learn new stuff , if anyone is a new parent hang in there ! The crying and stuff is tough but it will be over in no time and then you will miss the baby stage.... enjoy the innocent little baby and just try to be the best parent you can be...don't get mad at the baby for crying.

Putting a baby to sleep is not nearly as hard as keeping them asleep. OMG.

Swinging? Don't do it guys. If the baby gets used to it you are screwed. It won't stop crying before you start swinging 😂

Omg this is so true! I have a 7 week old baby currently and i couldn’t get her to sleep during the first few weeks until i started swaddling her. Now she sleeps up to five hours at night and wakes up without fussing. I breastfeed her and she goes straight back to sleep for another 4-5 hours. And i get the same amount of sleep at night too.

3 days post partum, thank you for giving this new mom some peace of mind and a few hours of sleep 😭 I couldn’t get her to stay asleep in the crib for anything and needed permission to just give her the pacifier

I used to put my daughter on my chest while on the couch and out like a light no swaddling while my wife was vacuuming. Shes 5 now and still has to lay next to me for a bit before she knocks out. If your baby is a newborn put them on your thighs while your sitting down and rock them left to right lightly they'll pass right out.

I started baby sitting at 12 (wouldn't do that today!) And I learned this stuff by trial and error. Skin to skin is a great way for dads to connect The little babes love pulling chest hair! Tactile

As a fresh father, its a constant struggle. But when i see smile of my babyson, i forget everything

I am 6months pregnant. Watching this video will help me when my baby is out. My due date is on the month of December. 🥰

Is “the baby whisperer” some kind of occupation? What subject do I need to study for it? I think that’s the only subject I would pass. 😂

Fun fact: Shushing mimics the echo of the mother's heartbeat in the belly

My dad is a expert in this... He was the one who made me sleep very deeply and I still see him do the same with other kids.. He really makes everyone sleep.. sometimes with soft voice. Sometimes shaking them. Sometimes he turns them and shakes. Sometimes he do something that can make them sleepy in a crying or angry moment of kids.....

This advice will save you nights of sleep. Also staying on top of a feeding schedule helps with avoiding the fussiness and crying.

What if you have twin boys who like to cry alot at the same time and shit everywhere at the same time lmao helpppppp

All babies aren't the same though. My first child loved it, second child didnt like being constricted. And i never rocked them. I didnt wanna start putting them to sleep in a certain way and then they only go to sleep THAT way. I laid them down and they fell asleep on their own. This guy is setting parent up to be up all night rocking babies.

His book was really a life saver ! Thank you forever Dr Karp !

Imitating the womb is probably the best way to put him to sleep. And keeping a steady routine helps a lot. Babies love routine, even though they're the ones who break it :D

I’ve just had my 4th hes 3 weeks old. My best advice for getting to sleep?! Make sure ALL wind is brought up first. I’ve always sleep trained good habits from day one or I’ll go insane. You can never spoil a newborn anyway so if it means you have to put baby on your chest to hear your heart beating to get them to sleep then so be it :) enjoy these moments

I always put our 4 babies to sleep on their side & blocked their body so they couldn't roll into their stomach. So if they spit up while in their bed, they couldn't choke on it if stuck on their back. They often feel asleep nursing while I slept on my side, the baby on the outside of the bed not between us. Only for a couple weeks. As soon as they could sleep ok in their own room, yay! 5 weeks with me with our first baby. 4 weeks with #2. 3 weeks with #3, and I got the 4th trained in only 2 weeks to sleep in the baby's room. I did have a bassinet next to my bed to help with training. I found that one arm down straight & one arm up was the most soothing, but unfortunately that allowed thumb sucking to become a habit for too many years, so if I had it to do over, I would do both arms down!

Omg these little animations are just so freaking cute! They make me want to wake up my baby boy just to put him back to sleep 😂 🥰

Does this guy have a KZfaq channel? I am going to be a new mama in September and this is clearly my go-to guy

*bay whisperer* : ItS NoT a PrObLeM AnYmOre

“Hey lil mama lemme whisper in ya ear” That’s all that came to mind lmfao

Come deal with my screaming colicky baby who hates being swaddled bruh. 🤣🤣🤣

Wife is 19 weeks. It's a girl. I'm exited because now my sister's twins will have a cousin to play with.

The baby looks like a doll 😍🥰

Perfect intro ... he said everything up front ...and then explains

I give birth in 4 months! So excited watching this!

2:52 ok, mommy had a great sleep. I think she's ready to go the party. Lols

*ASMR for babies*

My baby nephew hated all the traditional methods. He pushed out pacifiers with his tongue, he hated being swaddled, he cried anytime he was in a laying position, he loved to prove advice after advice wrong. Then finally we found a fool proof way to make him sleep. Hold him upright against the heartbeat and go on a short walk. Works every time.

It gets easier just before they reach 2months age. My baby was fussy, had colic and gasses. For the first month if she didnt sleep- she cried. You know how ppl say, play with baby, like hey mf play when??.. she cries all the time. Not jutlst crying but screaming like its being burned alive, loses voice, changes colora from red to blue to purple... So yea, nothing really helped except short period of bath time. She loved that. Then just before she reached 2 months, she slept better, ate better, didnt scream as much, and she smiled. She still had occassional stomach pain, gasses but it was nowhere as before. Finally we could play with her during her wake windows. So happy with her atm.

I’ve been doing it right all along 😊 My baby boy sleeps longer when he is being swaddled with a pacifier sometimes without. After I freshen him up by wiping with a cloth soaked in warm water, I feed him and 15 minutes after feeding and burping, I would just put him on the bed and he will just sleep on his own.

Yeah. That hold will work for a period of two days, and then you’ll just accept that they wake up at the drop of a feather, and you’ll learn to cope with less sleep lol (it’s just a joke) but also it’s exactly how it turned out for my wife and I with our son. We did the taking cara babies courses and everything; some babies just don’t respond the same, and that’s ok. Do whatever works best for you, and let the rest go. Remind yourself that it is only a matter of time for each challenge. Take a deep breath, enjoy the good times, forget the bad, and before you know it, they will be adults.

What a beautiful baby that one is!!

I remember when I used to watch this 9 months ago, when my baby was 1 month old......time flies so fast. Now I’ve started a channel with activities for babies 👶

💀 My baby won't suck on a pacifier. He'll just latch onto me and go to sleep and I'm stuck likevthat for hours.

Omg now I understand why it's so comforting to sleep in the car on a road trip!!

Watching this in the hopes I'd find something to help keep my newborn asleep at the moment. She hates swaddling and then she likes it sometimes. The minute I lay her down in her bassinet, 10 minutes later she starts crying. Every night this has been a routine now. I'm not sure when I can stop rocking her enough that she'll fall into a deep sleep I just set her down on my soft bedding and she loves it (and stays asleep of course) but I can't have her in my bed so now I'm stuck.

Swaddling yes. I can't tell you how many new mom's didn't see it as anything special. When I was babysitting they all slept for me bc I tucked them in tight and gave them their pacie and quietly whisper/sang to them. Boom sleeping baby. 👼

Great video! My firstborn sucked his thumb for about 4 years. I successfully managed to get my second baby to suck a pacifier. My firstborn is now 14 years and has perfect teeth, my second child is 12 and we're bracing ourselves for serious orthodontic work!🙈

Try to hold and swing 4.5kg newborn on one hand for more then couple of minutes ;)

I tried some of the steps with my baby, and it worked! Fell asleep in just 3 mins.

Dude you remind me of my favorite pedia, he passed away due to Covid and I've never encountered another good one ever since. Rip.

I'm an adult but i could use these tips so i could fall asleep. I'll start with the pacifier! 😀

Me: **starts swinging the baby at one foot and screams ito its ears** Baby: sleeps quietly

It's 2:30 am, I have a 3 day old baby. I'm lucky of I've got 6 hours of sleep altogether the past 4 nights. I'm literally EXHAUSTED!!! To the point that I'm scared of falling asleep while holding baby and dropping him or having him suffocate from sleeping on me. I literally cannot put him down. He just will not sleep unless he's being held. I hope to God this video helps cause I can't make it much longer.

Swaddling isn't recommended for every baby, but for some it works like a charm.

the tears looked like confetti

Currently going into my 2nd trimester, why is all this so cute to me. I know how tiring its gonna be with a new baby (first time mom) but still cant help but feel heartwarmed by the thought of rocking my sweet joy to sleep with these tips

Yes. This took skills and right way to do to so it doesnt lead to shaking syndrome or else. Been a neonatal nurse for ten years now really teaches me a lot.

My second baby disliked swaddling since day 1. I had to modify everything for her. She would sleep swaddled like a burrito 🌯 but with arms free and up. She rejected pacifiers ( I was happy about that one) and I had to incline her bassinet otherwise she’ll had some sort of reflux on a flat surface. After breastfeeding burping for several minutes was needed before even trying to put her to sleep. It’s all about cues, time, patience and dedication in my experience. But… I obviously watched this video because it’s been much harder for me this time 😊 She just want to be cuddled ❤️❤️❤️ and this phase will go so fast 😏

My little man screams when he's in a swaddle with his arms restricted! Love to dream swaddles have saved my sanity!

Baby had me up all night! No sleep 😴 for 2 day’s, sometimes it’s not easy but boy are they sooo darn cute and worth it!

This explains why both of my babies slept better during the day compared to at night. Some of the points were very logical 👍.

I totally agree with the fact that if we can make the baby sleep, the parents also can take enough rest and then they can do each and every thing happily...and lovingly for the baby and for others too...

It definitely worked for us!! Thank you so much🥰💓

This is a great video! It's always helpful to have some tips and techniques for getting a baby to sleep, as it can be one of the most challenging aspects of parenting. It's important to remember that every baby is different, and what works for one may not work for another. It's also crucial to be patient and consistent, as it can take time for a baby to develop good sleep habits. Thank you for sharing these useful tips!

My baby sleeps like an angel all day. At night it’s literally a heavy metal concert every 1 hour

Yessssss ❤baby loves rhythmic way.... slowly swings 🎉😊 it's so magically Granny smust be walky talky ❤😊

Why does he look like a dollar store Johnny depp

His book became my bible when I had my daughter, helped me so much!

Swaddling is a traditional way of ancient Persia (Iran). Glad to see that Westerners are learning from us. 😍🙌

This method works like a magic for my baby. It probably saves thousands or millions of hours for working parents worldwide!!!

What about babies with colic and acid reflux. I swear babies with these problems never sleep.

When I swaddle my baby boy, he tries to get rid off it. 🤣

All these videos are absolute waffle! Every single baby in the world is unique in the way you comfort them. Just love your baby create a calm environment and don’t react to every single noise they make. You’ll find your own way as you get to know your child.

Why am i getting this? My newborn niece is a champ, always sleep all the time, only crying when she wants milk or feels a little cold after bath, not even wake up after messing her diaper, it's weird but we are very grateful.

When you are single and still listening carefully and watching the whole video till the end

I'm so excited to have my baby now

Most babies that i have ever put to sleep was rocking, speaking softly to them or singing. Especially singing to them. Babies seem to love my singing. I think a lot of times moms are either stressed or tired or overwhelmed and the baby senses that. But here comes a friend, or stranger and I can put the baby to sleep in a few minutes. I just hope that when my time comes as a mom i will be able to do the same thing lol

Hi. Father of a 6 days old girl here. Thank you. Enough said.

Man this looks great. I'm due with my first in the fall.🥰🤰🏿cant wait to fry this and hopefully share on my page
