So uh, here I am with this... baby... thing. This is weird. I didn't even know this was still a thing?! And uh, Katniss, you're apparently my partner? Where are you so we can... meet up and deal with this. Situation.

[ There's a pause for a few seconds. ] Auntie? Do you mind helping me out?

Hello? Excuse me? Oh, I do hope this is working right! They told me other people would hear me, but I just don't know! I can't imagine what kind of magic it would take for something like that...

If you can hear me, my name is Giselle and it's lovely to meet whoever you are. I'm still just a bit confused over what's going on, but everyone I've met so far seems very kind.

It's odd. I remember falling down the well in Andalasia, but nothing like that happened when I was in New York. And I was never able to properly thank Robert and Morgan. But I know Prince Edward will still find me, no matter where I am.

Do any of you know Prince Edward? Oh, I do hope so.

TIPS TO SOOTHE A CRYING BABY
- If you've been cradling your colicky baby face-up and it isn't helping, try another position. Holding your baby facing down -- with your hand under her belly and her head on your forearm -- may soothe her. The pressure on her tummy can help relieve uncomfortable gas.
- Babies in the womb get used to a lot of motion. Mimic that by keeping your baby moving to get her to sleep. Put her in a swing. Cradle her in a rocking chair. Hold her car seat on a vibrating dryer -- never leave her alone, because she might fall. Driving your colicky baby around in the car might work too, but beware of driving if you're exhausted.
- In many cultures, infants spend much of the day hanging in slings on their mothers' backs or chests. When you put your colicky baby in a sling or carrier, he gets to snuggle close and -- with luck -- may be lulled to sleep by your movement. Slings can also give your aching arms a rest or free a hand to fix a sandwich.
- Consoling a colicky baby night after night is terribly hard. It's normal to feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and not up to the job. If nothing seems to work, take a break. Hand your baby off to your spouse or a family member.

OTHER TIPS!!! VERY HELPFUL
- Talk to your baby. She will find your voice calming.
- Read to your baby. This will help her develop and understand language and sounds.
- Sing to your baby and play music. This will help your baby develop a love for music and will help his brain development.
- Praise your baby and give her lots of loving attention.
- Spend time cuddling and holding your baby. This will help him feel cared for and secure.
- Play with your baby when she’s alert and relaxed. Watch your baby closely for signs of being tired or fussy so that she can take a break from playing.
- Try not to keep your baby in swings, strollers, bouncer seats, and exercise saucers for too long.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER TO SUPPORT THE HEAD!!!!
