Sleep help!

[glumirk]

I just remembered that around a month my daughter was having tummy problems, and simply applying pressure to her tummy as she was falling asleep made all the difference. She would go from squirmy and crying to calm in a matter of seconds.

Also, good signs that your baby is tired are: the first yawn, turns head away when you try to play, flailing arms and legs.

DD isn't a fan of swaddled arms either, but the twitching would keep her from getting into that deep sleep through anything sleep. If I kept them swaddled until she fell asleep (and sometimes I would have to gently hold them in place) then she would get to that sleep point. She always had them out after awhile, but it didn't matter. Now she is a finger sucker, but even wrapping a blanket tightly around her body leaving her arms out helps get sleep better. If she is over tired I HAVE to swaddle the arms.
