.5.Sing to the baby or read a book to the baby.4.Play some classical music; Mozart works very well. Oh, yes, I can see this working. The baby is crying so the mother sits down beside the crib and reads him a book, then puts on a Mozart CD. Have any of you ever known a baby to stop crying because you read a book to him??? What happened to rock the baby, walk with the baby in your arms or a sling or a carrier, swaddle the baby, let the baby suckle even if he last ate five minutes ago...
