I have been reading through the posts lately and want to help any moms who are having trouble with their non-sleeping babies or colicky babies...

I sit on my stability ball and very lightly bounce or move around in circles and it calms my baby almost instantly. I wish I had found this out sooner. Hope it helps even one mom. I know how frustrating colic can be.

Interesting timing! My DH just "discovered" this last week. My 6wk old LOVES to have us bounce him on the ball. The motion gets him to sleep...if only we could keep him to sleep when we get off the ball. He is such a light sleeper. Great advice and thanks for sharing with others!

Yes, I did this with my last two babes. It helps calm parents down too!

We did this too and I let DH do a lot of the "bouncing" lol. I usually would bring him to DH whenever I fed him and tried everything else. that always worked like a charm.

Oh, wow! Thanks for the tip. I will definitely try this. Even though he's not really gassy anymore, but I'd bet he'd like this.
