Fanny:
Yesterday was another tough day. Kay cried a lot again. We guessed she was bored but we were also not sure what to do to make her happy. We tried to talk to her, carry her around (till my hand hurt), give her toys & play with her. But nothing worked. I also tried searching on the internet about bored baby but couldn't find anything .

Today, when she cries, I and Ming try to do "unusual" things that we can think of. We try to think what she may want. We try changing her position few times (lay down on the sofa and move her around to face different direction, sit down, lay her on my stomach, etc) because we think she may be bored with the same position or feel hot on her back or feel uncomfortable. When she is still restless and cries (even when we carry her), we put her on a stroller and move her around the house. And guess what! These tricks WORK (although not all the time ) !! The last trick to let her ride on her stroller was inspired from my habit when I was a baby (thanks to Ming who remembers my parents' story about my childhood's habits) . I used to cry a lot before sleeping and my parents had to put me on their car and drive around till I fell asleep. Since we don't have a car here, we make a modified version of it using a stroller .
