Letting a baby cry for an hour without going in to console them is bad advice until you haven't slept for 6 days, then it's a good emergency ripcord to forgive yourself a nap before driving somewhere. Really all parenting advice is dependent on which phase of sleep deprivation you're in, the good parenting being front loaded.

in my experience when baby is crying too much it's either a bed issue (too hot, too cold, too stuffy, too smelly), constipation, diaper rash, or ENT issues. though most of the time they were feeling too hot.

a friend of wound up a single dad when his kid was still an infant, but he was also an avid musician and didn't intend to give that up, so every night he played loud rock music in the baby's room (safe levels he's not crazy). anyhow in a couple weeks the baby could pretty much sleep through anything, and they've grown up to be a super cool kid, so there's all kinds of ways to do it i guess.

My son used to scream at night and we kept fussing over him One night when we were both of the verge of a nervous breakdown we decided to try just letting him go. We set the timer at 30 mins. He screamed for about 15, then stopped. He was asleep. We did this for a week - now that little man sleeps like an angel, and he's healthy, happy and rested every day. I don't know how kids work but everyone said "oh no don't let them cry it out its so bad for them" and it's like - gently caress you. You don't know how they work either.

Our babies have hated the standard swaddles and will constantly wake up if their arms are restricted. They do much better in these: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Dream-Preferred-Position-Self-Soothing/dp/B07T48MBDB Also we had to move the new one away from an A/C register because she was getting too cold. Otherwise it can be challenging to make sure they get enough boob for the first month, sometimes they are lazy.

sleep training is just making them learn to self-soothe overnight, you basically do this by letting them cry it out, it usually takes less than a week - both of ours only needed a single night (which was like an hour of crying, use headphones it's heartrending) you can only do it when they're old enough to no longer need feedings in the middle of the night. before that sorry, you're gonna be waking up a lot, get good at low-light diaper changing also read about sleep regressions, that's a thing too
