But what most new parents don’t know is that the joy you get from the coos and cuddle will be mixed with the hard work of infant care.

One of them is that your newborn baby’s sleeping phase isn’t the same as adults. Once you have stepped past the delirium, you are about to completely lose your mind with this hurdle.

As you get to know your newborn’s sleeping needs and ever-changing patterns and rhythms, you will also learn to adjust to the new-parent sleep deprivation.

You try to seek help from your family or friends for the endless dos and don’ts. You will also scour numerous books or browse the internet for contradictory rules and scary safety warnings as you get overwhelmed by all these competing baby sleep philosophies.

With the quick sleight of his hand, he puts his baby into a trance.

At the count of one, the baby is slowly being enveloped in lethargy; at two his eyelids get heavier; at three the baby is knocked down. This makes his father’s face break in the widest grin, not expecting such a quick result. However, the baby is not completely under his spell yet. So he does the magic trick again and voila! His baby completely dozes off in an instant!
