My daughter is 6 weeks old, and at bedtime tonight, I tried to sing her to sleep while she was in her bed. She was fussy, but she often is right before she goes to sleep whether I am holding her or not. Finally, I picked her up, and she settled down and was asleep in 10 seconds (no exaggeration). Did she not understand that my voice meant I was nearby? I do not believe in letting a baby "cry it out" at 6 weeks old, so if she didn't understand then I don't want to try that again for awhile. I don't know if she thought I was gone or if she just needed some cuddling.
