Just bundle up your patience. loving care and these soothing products to help you calm your little one.

2. A Snuggly Swaddle

 


Infants like the feeling of being snug & cozy in warm amniotic gentle womb-like environment. Swaddling has been in existence since I guess mankind existed! Trust me, swaddlers turn out to be lifesavers at several instance.

Shown here is The Woombie Air – it has been awarded the safest and most effective baby swaddle that requires no wrapping. It’s the first breathable baby swaddle that regulates baby’s body temperature by allowing excess heat to escape. All you do is put baby in and zip up!

Nearly any blanket can be used to swaddle the baby , I particularly recommend Carter’s for its fine quality.There are several other global brands like Aden + Anais which get better after each wash.

 

 

3. Soothing Ointment/Lotion

A soft gentle relaxing massage works wonders in soothing just anybody- sometimes this is what the cranky little one demands too!

Use the complete bath set to give your baby a gentle massage followed by calm bedtime bath to help bring additional zen into your baby’s life.
