Having a new baby brings all sorts of challenges. I wonder how I’ll soothe my baby, and how I’ll be able to comfort her as much as possible. But luckily, my baby is pretty easy to soothe. When I rested in a chair with my baby, I could tell she was happy about it. I rocked back and forth in the chair with my baby, and my baby fell asleep shortly afterward.
I think a rocking chair just has a certain effect on children. The way it gently rocks a child is just soothing and helps them sleep better. My new baby is no different, and I’m glad she really likes the feeling of being in the rocking chair. I don’t mind being in it, myself. It’s just nice to feel like my bond with my child is strengthening as I rock her quietly to sleep.
It really is nice when you know your child is quietly asleep and drifting off into dreamland. I think having peace and quiet is lovely, and my baby is healthier if she gets enough rest for her rapidly growing body. It’s important for babies to get lots of sleep, so I’m glad I have a means of getting what my baby needs with ease.
