Dad finds unique way to stop baby son crying

HerFamily

It wasn’t that long ago that paediatrician Dr Hamilton showed the world how to calm a crying baby.

This week, another trick has emerged online, courtesy of new dad Micah Hayman.

His 11-week-old son Eli just wouldn’t settle so he decided to play The Imperial March, composed by John Williams and made famous by Star Wars.

We don’t know whether he simply likes the tune (or perhaps he’s destined to become a Storm Trooper) but it certainly works its magic.

Proud father Micah, from the US, uploaded the clip to YouTube and it’s very cute… so cute, we might try it the next time we have a crying baby in our arms!
