1.) For those first few weeks/months, when your baby is sleeping in some kind of baby rocker, car seat, etc...
Tie a shoe string to the contraption the baby is sleeping in. Then you can pull on it and rock the baby without getting out of bed or off the couch.
Life: hacked!
2.) "The Secret Weapon" - If your baby is crying and fussing in the car seat, grab the handle of it and swing them in a large, fast sweeping motion. Not some gentle-ass rocking here. Put some real muscle into it and give them a ride. The crying stops almost immediately. Almost every time. This trick was passed along to be by another dad. It's like a secret Dad tip, I hear.
