What do you do when your baby is tired but won't fall asleep?

Question

Every evening she gets like this! She's soooo tired but she won't fall asleep. I feel like I've tried everything. Holding her, rocking her, putting her in a swing, a bouncer, a bassinet, letting her cry, soothing her, etc.
What do you dooooo????

Answer

You could try a bath. Sometimes that helps. Usually knocks my little one out

Answer

Try putting her down earlier than you usually do. When babies get over tired is harder to get them to sleep. Also if she hadn't had g good naps through the day and been awake enough it makes our hard for them to go to sleep at night as well. Brady of luck!

Answer

I walk and bounce around, she likes to lay upright over my shoulder. She even likes the patting when i try to burp her that puts her to sleep. Also breastfeeding while we’re both laying down also puts her to sleep that’s the fastest way.

Answer

Husband likes to do tummy time to wear little man out.

Answer

Swaddle him, stick a soother in his mouth and put him in the swing. I have to also walk away because he won’t sleep if he sees me. He wants to stare at me all day long. I can tell when he needs to sleep because he wants to constantly feed but doesn’t care if no milk is coming out of my boobs.

Answer

I have the same with my 4 week old. I've been told it's the 'witching hour' haha. I hold him, rock him, play gentle music and read to him but unsettles.
