    I litterally had no idea about the swings & sleepers, thank goodness I learned about this right before having our 1st baby in a few weeks. My friends used to always use sleepers & swings to let their babies sleep in another room, while they went off & did other stuff in another room. If the baby fell asleep in a stroller or carseat they would just leave them in it, as if it was buying them more time of peace & quiet. Thanks to this video I will easily remember "No chin to chest"

    My little one is so noisy when he sleeps. Somehow i've now learned to filter out his 'not awake noises' when i'm asleep and now pretty much only wake up with his awake cry or any strange new noise (like a cough or soemething). It's crazy what our brains can do and i'm so bloody gratefull for it.
    I do agree with the fact that swaddling/sleepsacks and an empty crib are best for babies saftey. But that isnt possible with every baby. My little one needs a special medical pillow and for quite a while would only sleep next to me in his nest. Sometimes you've just gotta do what you gotta do.

    Great videos! The only one I do not agree with is the Purple crying. Not all babies go through it. My second one briefly cried the first 2 weeks after birth before going to sleep before we figured out the reason, which was being overly tired. There is usually a reason to purple crying that can help but parent do not always find out what the reason is.

    We used swaddle in hospital and couple days at home, until we realized baby loves to stretch and move his arms different ways all the time, which stretching also helps them to deal with uncomfort from gas. So we let our baby be free and use sleep sacks instead, after all they not in womb anymore and need to stretch out their joints and know they are not in tight space anymore. And startle reflex is normal even if it might cause inconvenience to parents by baby waking up, most the time he falls back to sleep but if he does wake up and quick feed and burp puts him back to sleep.

      For some bubs this period is just when the bub is a bit more fussy then usual. So not necessarily crying but just a bit more restless than usual - preferring to be held and maybe having shorter naps and feeding more often.

    Is it safe to babywear with a sling for newborns? Full term. I'm finding she's on me all day and doesn't settle in the moses basket during the day. She wants to be held all the time. And I love it but need my hands free - ive been told to put her down but can't get myself to do it as she starts crying. Any tips on that.

    as a new mom, i too thought that it is a must to burp a baby, and get anxious when my daughter doesn’t. after some time, i realise that that is perfectly fine (i do get her in burping position for a few mins just to get the milk down tho)! in fact, most of the time she’d get too drowsy after a feed that she’ll fall asleep BEFORE i could even try to burp 😂

    • @EmmaHubbard
      @EmmaHubbard  Год назад

      Exactly, they are often drowsy or asleep after a feed and burping can actually wake them back up and then you need to settle them back to sleep again. If the bub doesn't get fussy or unsettled when they don't get burped it can make the process a whole lot easier and quicker.

    Hey there! So, I'm a new dad and I'm kind of trying to figure out this whole baby thing. My 3-week-old daughter is giving me a run for my money, especially when it comes to her crying and squirming in her bassinet. Swaddling seems to be a big no-no for her, as she constantly fights to break free and ends up crying even more. I wonder if it's because she's in REM sleep? Can you tell me what signs to look out for to know if she's crying because she actually needs something? Should I give her a little time to see if she settles down and goes back to sleep? Appreciate any advice!

    • @natdugdale3625

    • @EmmaHubbard
      @EmmaHubbard  Год назад +3

      Great question! At 3 months of age the startle reflex should be reducing if it hasn't already stopped. If your little one still experiences the startle reflex then you can reduce the likelihood of triggering it by using a white noise machine (as this will mask sudden loud noises which triggers the startle reflex) and when moving your baby try and do it slowly and with smooth movements, as limiting big sudden movements will reduce the chances of your baby startling. In regards to keeping them warm without using blankets sleeping bags (where the arms are free) are a great solution. Make sure you check out the TOG rating of the sleeping bags to ensure you choose one which is suitable for the room temperature.
      I hope that helps!

I live in a huge household and everyone wants to play with her leaving her stimulated throughout the day. It’s difficult to explain to them to leave the baby alone, since her sleep hours only range from 5 to 9 hours in 24 hours only. Please suggest what to do? Is this much sleep enough for a newborn? It’s been 3 weeks since she slept properly during the day. Also daylight does not help much.

    Hello I would like to correct you about baby caring. The back must be supported to be in C position, other way is it very bad for the spine, so that the vertebrae do not press againts other. So no stuffed or hard back of the carrier, the best thing for newborns are stretchy scarf made for babywearing. Other rule is M position for legs and the fabric must be from knee to knee.

    • @EmmaHubbard

      Hi Dagmar, according to Red Nose Australia and the American Academy of Pediatrics when baby wearing a baby's body should not be curled or slumped (C-position) so that baby's chin is forced to baby's chest as this may restrict breathing.

    In regard to the car seat, mine comes out and clicks onto the pram, should I get a bassinet pram for increased safety? She is never unsupervised in the pram/car seat.

    Thank you for the great video! I've only a few more days of pregnancy to go, and I'm a bit worried now about the car seat, as it attaches to the stroller (the stroller bed is flat, but it says it's for children of six months of age). Would it be ok to take baby for walks in the car seat/stroller, or should I avoid it as much as possible?

    • @maddythelion
      @maddythelion 5 месяцев назад

      Guessing you've figured this out now but I'm replying for the benefit of others. I think it's fine as long as you're supervising them, they're awake and they're not in it for more than an hour or so at a time (less if it's very hot out). The worst case scenario is that they fall asleep in the car seat and you're not watching them.

    yeah, baths aren't necessary at all, my baby hates it she has had 5 baths since she was born and she's almost 2 months old. Last bath lasted for 5 minutes before she started fussing, yet everything was fine (temperature etc). I clean her with baby wipes from time to time - but they shouldn't be too cold or she fusses too, so I rub them through my clean hands so they warm up a little

    I have a question, my son was born 5 weeks early and I'm not sure if I should try a schedule for his adjusted age or his actual age. He's holding his head up super well and smiles and been cooing but when on his back he's made no attempt to roll over. He is 3 months old (13 weeks) but just not sure about the sleep wake cycles of it should be the typical ones for 2 months or 3 months olds.

    • @EmmaHubbard
      @EmmaHubbard  Год назад

      Hi Tristan great questions the simple answer is with sleep and developmental milestones you base your expectations on their adjusted age. I hope that helps!

    mine is neh for hungry, ehh for burping. nair gas. so far.... hes 3 month old now and it seems consistent
    mine hasn't done the purple crying yet... interesting... i keep being told i have a good baby.
    yesterday he got vaccinated cried for 10 seconds then went off to sleep... cried little bit on and off.. even ate the entire oral vaccine... i was told by a lady whos been doing it for a long time the same thing...
    i wonder why? is it because he has higher pain tolerance because of my life long chronic pain may have something to do with it? my mom not here anymore so i cant ask her...

    When I swaddle my two week old he wakes himself up trying to fight off the restraint on his arms . I had to buy a swaddle that allows his arms up by his ears but he pees all over everything ! So I’m purchasing more swaddles now to have back ups . Boys pee all over everything ! Haha

    first time mom. My baby’s grandparents keep doing wrong and sometimes very dangerous behaviors to my child assuming they’re bonding with and intertaining her. When I ask them not to, they give me sarcastic gestures and make fun of me as if I’m a lunetic or obsessive person. Its making me so much tired and frustrate

      It’s ok to not swaddle your baby swaddling is great IF your baby enjoys it but if your baby doesn’t like it there no reason to try to force them into swaddling
      Not liking sitting in his own pee sounds normal I probably wouldn’t like sitting in a dirty diaper either

      If it doesn’t fit the baby well (if it’s a sleep sack type one and is the wrong size) or isn’t tight enough/put on right (if it’s a swaddle blanket that hasn’t been put on right or if your baby is able to wiggle themselves out of it) yes they can
      But if used/done correctly they’re safe
