Welcome to BB! The first 6 weeks are really tough as bubs is working out what is going on and getting used to being in the big wide noisy world.

With DD2 I found that she settled much better in a sling - we had a hug-a-bub that was fantastic. DP also used to wear it and go for walks with her in it when she was really unsettled - it worked a treat. The other thing is to lie down in bed with bubs so that he can settle with you close by. The sound of your heartbeat is soothing to them.
