Tricks for getting him to sleep

Any tricks for getting a two week old to fall asleep?

He was eating and then falling asleep but for some reason the last few nights he would fall asleep and wake up a few minutes later. This happens over and over again for a few hours. Any tricks to get him to sleep?

My DD would love when I would play lullabies. She liked going to sleep with music.

Is he getting swaddled? At that age they have this reflex where they move their arms in their sleep and startle themselves awake. I would recommend swaddling him, he wont wake himself up as much!!

I agree with the swaddling and music. Once we started to swaddle DD she would sleep much longer. She also loved listening to us sing.
