Welcome to newborn stage lol my son is two months and I have to rock him hard and hush loudly for him to close his eyes. Have a routine and stick to it. He’s probably fussy because he’s overly tired. If you start rocking him to sleep as soon as you see the signs that will make him less fussy

Thank you . Will try That, literally try and rock him as soon as he is tired. But it still doesn’t work sometimes especially when I am still in the living room with everyone around .. it only works when I go to the room when it’s quiet and play music in the background lol.

If not then do the hour trick, 30 mins of eating and burping and 30mins of playtime then put him to sleep even if he doesn’t show signs of being tired. A dark room and rocking will tire him out.

seems like he’s making you work for it lol whatever you have to do to put him to sleep is worth it at the end because it gets worse if he doesn’t nap throughout the day

Skin to skin, quiet room and a full tummy

Normal! Make sure the room is dark when you're putting him to sleep. That helps them relax.

Just here to say I’m right there with you! 6 weeks old and refuses to sleep unless we hold her
