What are the best techniques for rocking a baby to sleep?

There are several effective techniques for rocking a baby to sleep. Some popular methods include gentle swaying, using a rocking chair, or even walking while holding the baby. What have you tried so far?

I've tried swaying, but it doesn't seem to work well.

If swaying isn't effective, you might want to try a rhythmic motion, like bouncing gently on an exercise ball. The movement can be soothing for babies.

That sounds interesting! Any tips on how to create a calming environment while rocking?

Absolutely! Dim the lights, play soft music or white noise, and ensure the room is at a comfortable temperature. This can help create a peaceful atmosphere.

Thanks! I'll give that a try.
