First time mommy of 2 month old girl says:
What has been working for us was to set up good night-time and day-time environments right from the start. So during the day, the house was moderately noisy and bright, and then at night, I would keep the lights dim and the house very quiet. I didn’t talk to her during night feedings (although plenty of eye contact and cuddling were involved) unless she really needed some calming.
