@TurnerNovak - Pro tip for fellow males: hold the baby close against your

male reward patterns are clearly hardwired for the task of putting newborn babies to sleep. once you see it it’s impossible to ignore. the baby gives you imperceptibly small signs of what it needs and if you provide, baby sleeps. takes 30m. rewards practice. impresses women.

it’s like if repairing an engine took 10% of the time and involved zero oil stains. “oh yeah — when it makes that noise you just need to pat it here for 5 minutes and you’re good”.

full respect to women but this is just not a task for them. they have one solution — breast feeding — and when that doesn’t work they’re like “ahhhhh baby won’t sleep ahhh im going crazy ahhh”. step aside toots. maybe make a spreadsheet or something. this is a task for dad

2025-06-30Pro tip for fellow males: hold the baby close against your chest (put your hand on their head and gently hold against you), slowly rock back and forth while incorporating a slight up and down motion, and hum quietly where you can feel the vibration on your chest where the babies head is.
Takes some practice but gets them to quickly calm down and fall asleep unless something is really wrong.
