Our baby just wouldn't stop fussing, it was now getting closer to 4 AM.

I promptly switched over to "Thing in a Book" - and she cooed / sighed, and immediately relaxed. She was asleep within MOMENTS.

So while not the most scientific of methods - it seems to work!

It's become the go-to method to soothe her. I literally played it back-to-back three times this morning.
that's wild. yeah, thanks for sharing! Thing in a Book is one of those that keeps coming up whenever I'm having a pretty calm one, so it's no surprise, but still neat that a three month old would respond like that.
