Q.
#asktheexperts My 5 month old baby doesnt sleep easily. She only sleeps when i feed her. She cannot self soothe. Can someone please tell me how do i not make my baby not dependent on feeds for sleep? If i try to make her sleep without feeds she throws tantrums and cries and eventually i get tired and lose patience.

Janani ViswanathanMom of 2 children4 years agoA. You can try other sleep associations like cradles or mildly rock the baby in ur hand or shoulders. Again u will have to wean the usage of cradles at some point and the habit of holding before sleeping might be hard to break. Or u can use lullabies, calm soothing music or tuck in the baby to keep him warm (like swaddling) in a dimly lit room.
