Parenting
- Turn off the lights in his room. Be very quite so that nothing can disturb his sleep.
- Breast feed the baby to his sleep.
- Feed ur baby as much as he want. When he wake up at night don't feed him & try to make him sleep by sitting on a rocking chair.
- Try to sing some rhymes or sweet songs for him.
- Always make the baby to sleep on her back.
- Make him sleep in ur arms & afterwards put him in the cot. It will make him learn to sleep without u in separate room also.
- Don't use pillow or water beds.
- Cot should be clean, cracks free, dry & comfortable for the baby.
- U can use sleeping bags in winters as this will keep baby cozy.
- In summers warmth can be given by using light blanket, cotton sheet or extra clothing.
- Don't make him suck his thumb for sleeping as this can become his habit & if he tries to do it, give him a toy to play, when he gets tierd of it he will sleep.

BONDED FOREVER
Before marriage everyone try to be big lovers like the Sohni-Mahiwal, Shiri-Farah & of couse like Romeo-Juliet. But after marriage that passion comes to an end slowly & steadily. As after marriage the responsibility increases & the time u spend with eachother before marriage decreases. Once the initial rush of hormones wears off, its easy to start seeing the other person & rather unflattering eyes that don't really make for good news. Try to look at the good part also, before marriage what u liked in ur betterhalf, do u remember that? Now try to see him in new prespective & fall in love with him again. Admire him everyday & stay in love. If u liked the muscled hunk man, or u like his green eyes try to find new things like how he cares for u when u fall ill, he's doing this hard work only for u, see how he provides for ur every need. Look at the positive attributes & u will start loving him again.
Just think once what u r doing here if he don't loves u, u might be somewhere else. And we all are here for love. Try to give more, nothing will be going with u only that goes is the love u spread.
