  • I tried this on my wife, it didn't work very well, she got louder.

  • Your very right about that it takes American decades to figure things out that other countries have been doing forever. Baby wearing is relativity new in America but it works, even breast feeding was viewed as wrong in my grandmothers day now we know its the best thing for our children ... of course not everyone chooses the best for there babies.

  • I see...

  • i have to try this after i have mine

  • @pariah1974

    what a load of ...; I live in the Netherlands (small country in Europe) and we are no 2nd or 3rd world country and have always seen breastfeeding as the best option

    swaddling has been applied here a long time as well

    perhaps it's a consumer (=advertisement) driven economy thing?

    but I believe neither is the thing that is 'new' in the method shown here, the upside down sideways motion is, I'm gonna try it first change I get.

    We in America (as well as some other Western countries) are very susceptible to trends. We love the latest thing. So breastfeeding was seen as old and silly when formula came along, we have given up swaddling in favor of bouncy seats and swings etc.

    Now that there are the velcro swaddles and science sees the light again on breastfeeding it all comes back into fashion.

    Other countries (especially 2nd and 3rd world countries) don't have the luxury of trends and fashionable ideas

  • Awesome!

  • One thing I've noticed is that lowering the frequency of your shooshing can make a difference. I don't shoosh nearly that loud in my daughter's ear but I do it at a lower register and it works quite well.

  • Haha. This guy is the baby whisperer. Lol.

  • @navymish24

    you realize the babies' crying is louder than that shush right?

  • your not "binding" your baby when you swaddle them. it makes them feel secure and safe. they were like that for 10 months after all.
