I barely remember how I get over it in immediate term but my previous post about the learning is pretty much what accumulated since then.
If I have to dig into my brain harder, the single most important thing come to my mind is "routine" which I get it very often in a lot of books too. Baby is creature of routine. Any disturbance to the routine is a big deal to baby. I tried to do thing in fixed schedule and fixed action e.g. even with friends visit, i insisted to put the kid to bed same time...etc so across time, I see my kids getting much calm and stable, and of course, less tears as a reward | |

I agree with the routine thing fully! Though it's hard when people turn up (as my kittycat is supposed to be going for a nap) and then expect that she stay up so they can coo and dote. This effectively gets her wound up and throws her out of synch for the next few days
Did you manage to get a truly stable routine going with your little one at 8 weeks?
