Many people; Family, friends, and other moms will likely be more than willing to offer their advice, tips, and suggestions, even if you don’t particularly want it. The best thing you can do is listen to everything, you will soon decide which sleeping, snuggling and feeding methods and techniques you want to try with your baby. It will be a case of testing a few to see what works.

Research all possible resources, online e-books, directories, and support services. Go to the library or buy good books, magazines or join mom groups depending on your style. There are hundreds of resources out there, it’s just a matter of finding one you like.

I soon realized once my baby was born that a lot of what I read would be trial and error with some techniques working brilliantly and others not.

If you swaddle or swaddle your baby, you may find this comforting for many newborns because it reminds them of being inside the womb and helps them relax, feel safe and secure.

Bonding is great for new parents. There are many different ways, lots of hugging and connection, eye contact, breastfeeding, and warm soothing voices help bond and lots of skin-to-skin contact for both moms and dads with their baby.

If you have a crying baby and are not sleeping very well there are many ways you can try to help soothe your baby, staying calm and being kind is very important and also hard to do when you are feeling a bit run down. A swing can rock your baby to sleep, a sling can hold the baby close so she can hear your soothing heartbeat, a warm bath and a massage.

Then there are music CDs, or CDs with white noise, consistent rhythmic noise. I’ve heard of moms recording the vacuum and washing machine and playing it back to their babies, which worked wonders. Other moms trust the fans. Lots of things to try and you will be able to find out which of these works for you, the mother and the baby.
