The past three weeks have been easy sailing until today I've cried twice. My son will only latch in the football position on the left side and he's cluster feeding. My house is a Disaster and he only poops after I give him a lil bit of gas drops. Having a where have I gone wrong moment even though I have done everything I know to be right.

He could be. She rolled onto her side in the hospital

@shortizzie, i have noticed a lot of change in the last couple of days. I don't know if I'm crazy but I swear he's trying to roll himself. He's probably not but when he is laying on his back it really looks like he's trying to get to his tummy.

My baby is almost 2 months and I'm just now able to put her in her swing to get stuff done without her crying. Yes she has fussy days were she just wants to be held. I love those days. But I like to be able to put her down too. It'll get better. They do change a lot between 2 and 3 weeks.

I love holding my son as well but after awhile my body starts to hurt from just being still. I love when he is fine with being in the carrier, Because I have my hands free. @landon1002

@shortizzie, @landon1002 @princessvictoria ladies thank you for the encouraging words. And for offering up your ears. As great as my husband is and everything he does for me, it's hard to let my pride of keeping a clean house and hot meals being made everyday go. I'm too hard on myself sometimes. I'm so set in my ways that adding a new lil human who completely depends on me has finally sunk in and I just need to chill out and let things be.

@blue_87, awe just saw that! and must be a 3 week thing. lady at WIC said they have a growth spurt between 2 And 3 weeks so I'm guessing that's what it is. only difference is I don't mind holding him so it's kind of a win win. I get cuddles and he gets fed lol :)

my daughter is month and 10 days and she still cluster feeds 😧 there's days I can clean the whole house and wash and others I can't even move from my bed... my so didn't understand till he was there to see it for himself so know he helps clean and cook. I told him or I feed her and comfort her or I let her cry till I'm done cleaning and cooking..his like no take care of her... so leave the mess if someone complains let them take care of baby..but all will get better relax and enjoy your baby because they grow so fast..

Cheer up. Being a mommy is hard. He'll stop cluster feeding eventually. I'm here as well if you need to talk. I cried all day when I breastfeed and had to stop because I was getting to where I hated feeding her. Now I miss it so much. Your doing great

my son will be 1 month on the 18th!!! I am having the same exact problem. only difference is I have to use nipple shield cause my son won't latch at all otherwise!! I tried pumping once and only got half a ounce from both sides combined. I feel the exact same way! my mom said it's just what's comfortable for baby since their body is in a growth spurt when cluster feeding that their bodies may be sore as well so they want to be comphy too. idk if that helps any but I'm here if u wanna talk
