March 29, 2002, Newsletter Issue #77: Soothing a Crying Baby
Tip of the Week
Ten things to try when all else fails:
1. Wrap her in warm blankets.
2. Use a front carrier. Babies find this very comforting.
3. Place the baby seat on top of a running washing machine. (Stay close, in case vibrations make the seat move.)
4. Keep a stroller in the house and walk the halls.
5. Sing. Lullabies work.
6. Turn on some white noise - vacuum, hair dryer, static on the radio.
7. Go outside. The fresh air and scenery can cause a distration.
8. Take a drive.
9. Distract a bored baby by blowing bubbles - at a distance so the soap doesn´t land on him.
10. Bathe him. The warmth and water can be very soothing.
