Sleep regression at 6 weeks

knottie74b7cea527d80a7b

Lord help us! Our normally very calm very quiet little guy has turned into a red faced yelling monster. He's still cute. Don't get me wrong. But this sleep regression is so different! Every hour he wants to nap and my poor nipples are killing me from using that method to get him to sleep. We try the shushing and the dark room, we were told to watch for sleep cues and get him ready for a nap before he's tired but it's so hard to tell the difference between sleep cues and hungry cues lol
Any suggestions how to get through this stage with our lil guy?
