The Happiest Baby on the Block (book)

*The Happiest Baby on the Block* is a parenting book that offers practical strategies to soothe and calm crying infants. It introduces five key techniques—called the "5 S's": Swaddling, Side/Stomach positioning, Shushing, Swinging, and Sucking—that mimic comforting sounds and motions babies experience in the womb. The approach aims to reduce infant fussiness, promote better sleep, and help parents feel more confident. By understanding and applying these gentle methods, caregivers can create a more peaceful environment, fostering both infant well-being and parental resilience.
