Hi have a hyperactive 8m baby. he cannot sleep by himself, we need to rock/ walk him to sleep. He cannot consolidate his naps ( naps are 20 - 45 mins). We tried not to rock him to sleep and divert him until he would get tired and sleep by himself, but that dsnt work, he would cry but not sleep. What do we do?

new generation babies are hyper active only. yes it's very challenging to deal such situations. I would recommend you to use garbh sanskar shlok cd music play maximum time at home. some aum chanting continuous also brings good positive changes in babies. so don't wry instead of gtng panic... be calm n positive.

This is very normal for an 8m old. Your baby is growing and needs to explore and play to learn and be happy. it might be time to have play dates, go to the park, kids gym and join a mothers group and think of activities for him. It's a challenging time for the family now to keep him busy and entertained. When u feel it is sleep time (1 or 2 naps a day) put him in a sling and let him sleep with you. join a gentle parenting, baby wearing or slow parenting group.
