What do you all think about self soothing. My son is 2 and a half weeks old and he's a little fuss box. My husband has been reading on baby's self soothing themselves. So baby is fed and changed before he is put down for bed. My son screams. He's given 15 minutes to to ether calm and or fall asleep before we can go calm him down. As a mother I hate to hear him scream and not do anything about it. Anyone else tried this or have any tips for me.

I don't do it but it works for some people. Do what makes you comfortable

my opinion, he's too young to self sooth. it's hard for babies that young to calm down once they are wound up, and could start to choke on their tongue from being so upset. again, my opinion!!

I agree with @junebaby511 in my opinion baby is way to young to self soothe. Try burping him and rubbing his back to make sure he has no gas after eating. Even if he burps once or twice doesn't mean its all out. Do you have a swing or bouncer?

I agree with he's too young. I don't like that method either.
