Crying in a pram
Hi all, wondering what you normally do when your baby cries in a pram? My daughter is 2.5 months and sometimes she falls asleep quickly during a walk, but often gets bored after a while and starts crying and wouldn't calm down. If I pick her up she may calm down but then there is no way I can put her back and she dislikes the carrier - so I get stuck as holding her and pushing the pram is difficult. Dummy doesn't help much and I usually feel embarrassed to walk around a park or worse even a shop whilst she is crying like crazy (I make sure she is well fed before the walk a is not hot or cold).

Try play imogen heap - the happy song, we use a tiny portable speaker and little one loves to hold on and listen to his tunes which currently is a jazz playlist 🤣🤣, a mix of easy to clip on toys is a good distraction too. Try stop and let her touch leaves or a tree etc to break up a long walk etc, just a few things we do and don't feel embarrassed babies cry it's their only method of communication! It's normal xx
I basically always have to baby wear as my baby hates the pram. She will last 10 minutes max. I think once she is in a seat, rather than the bassinet, she will be happier in it
