How to Calm a Fussy Little: LDR Version
🌻Find the root of the problem, like hunger or fatigue or missing you and plan accordingly
🌻If you can, call them so their fussiness doesn’t turn into a tantrum
🌻If you can’t call them, have them do tasks for you so keep their mind off whatever’s making them fussy
🌻If they can, tell them to use their baba (bottle), paci, or little gear that calms them
🌻Text them with a voice recording of you saying something calming or soothing, like “shhh baby, Daddy/Mommy is right here” if you can’t video call
🌻If they get really fussy often, pre record them a video saying you love them + other soothing things
🌻Have them cuddle with a stuffie or pillow - when I miss daddy I fold my pillow in half to make a Pillow Daddy
🌻Have then drink tea, hot chocolate, or another warm beverage without (much) caffeine
🌻Remind them you’re there for them, always
🌻Remind them you love them, even if they’re fussy
🌻Reward them if they calm themselves down
🌻But if they throw a tantrum, try not to lose patience and calm them down as quickly as possible
🌻Be aware that more fussiness than normal, not regressing often enough or MUCH more than normal, etc. can be a sign they’re going through something, never hurts to ask
🌻After all the fussiness and possible tantrum is over, remind them that it’s ok to be fussy and express those feelings (in fact, my daddy thinks it’s adorable when I get fussy over missing him)
Who else gets super fussy? I know I do..as I write this it’s 4:25am and I’m up because I’m fussy from missing daddy. Anywayyyyssss hope this helps!
