I just was shocked when I got that angry over his crying that I actually wanted to tighten my grip on him, but I didn't actually do it. I really would never actually hurt him, I honestly love him more than I've ever loved anything. It might Also be a good idea to invest in a carrier, babies tend to find it really soothing and might fall asleep in it and it leaves you time to eat, go to the bathroom. Think rationally Every time the thought comes into your head and read about shaken baby syndrome, and bring that back to mind when any thoughts get into your head. Whenever it is becoming overwhelming, let someone else take over or put your LO in his crib or on a blanket on the Floor where he cant fall off anything and step out of the room, somewhere where you cant hear him crying, recollect yourself and go back in.ĭon't ever give into the urge to shake or squeeze him, just try to Just keep in mind that a baby doesnt cry to bother you or because its spoiler but because he is in pain or has An unfulfilled need. I truly understand how you are feeling, its really exhausting, i Also went under my weight from before pregnancy. The reason he is nursing so much could be because the acid in his throat is bothering him and drinking is a way to soothe the burning sensation leading to even more acid. I'm not saying your LO has a foodallergy as well, could be, but it could be possible that he has any other underlying problem causing this like his reflux. What helped for me since i EBF, i stopped eating dairy, gluten, spicy foods, coffee, softdrinks, tomatoes 2 weeks ago and since a week its been a lot better, she actually sleeps a lot more, she is less fussy during the day and its not as hard to get her to sleep anymore. If he is puking, it could be the reflux bothering him. My daughter also didnt sleep during the day until about a week ago and i Also had her in my arms all day and spent hours trying to rock her to sleep. Have you taken him to a doctor to see if there is any underlying problem causing him not to sleep well and cry? I feel like a failure and I just can't stop crying today. Women who's babies sleep all night in their cribs and mine barely sleeps even if I hold him. I read all these women post on here about how they have several kids and manage to cook and clean everyday and I can barely go to the bathroom. Now I worry that I'm not giving my baby the right nutrients but yet he's growing like a weed. I'm down to 121 lbs, which is probably normal for being 5'5' but I used to be about 135 to 140 lbs normally and I had been 170 lbs in my pregnancy. And I can't even find time to pee or eat, although now my appetite is gone, I'd rather just have the feeling of hunger go away. But then he'll smile at me and I cry and tell him I'm so sorry because I love him more than life itself. Sometimes when he won't stop crying I feel it's an effort to not shake him or squeeze him as hard as I can because I get so angry. My baby cries any time I'm not holding him, everyone is telling me I have him spoiled, he seems to want to nurse constantly but won't take a pacifier and pukes all the time, he now refuses to sleep at night, I get nothing productive done all day and lately I feel like I'm going insane. The past couple of days have just been bad.

I think im losing my mind
