How can I get my daughter to stay in her bouncing chair without crying?

I had the same problem with my daughter, you can try swaddling her first before you put her down, a soothing sound like water running, sometimes even the sound of the vacuum works.

I ended up wearing my baby. I bought a Moby wrap. It left me hands free and still gave her the closeness to me that she needed.

well honestly you have to let her cry and just check on her every fifteen mins if not she will expect you to hold her twenty four hours lol i with through this with my dd

Oh my goodness, just hold her! All she knows is your warmth means safety and comfort. Put her down to go to the bathroom, shower, cook or whatever but I promise you these days will pass and she will not be spoiled. Babies need to be held. I know it seems as though you will never get anything done but you will for sure not get these days back. Hang in there!

If you need to be hands free get a sling or a wrap. This saved my sanity as well as my SO's. It made it easy for him to work at home while I was at work when our LO was a newborn.

you can't..

get a carrier or wrap. (love our sleepywrap)

They don't start getting used to being held until around 8 months or so. You will know when they do it.

I think it can often be unrealistic as a Mother to be expected to hold a child constantly, so please do not feel ostracized by others for needing a break.....I think if people are honest with themselves we all needed it esp with a new born!

If she doesnt like the bouncer or to be in a wrap inside try other things like if you have a boppy pillow or any pillow lean her against it sometimes they dont need the motion and just want to be still, or use a pack and play type thing lay her down in it with something to look up at like a mobile etc.....its trial and error, each baby is different, but if you keep trying you are sure to find something she will like. Good Luck! Do you have a swing? Many babies rather swings than bouncers......
