We've been fighting to put our daughter to sleep for over four hours. She's MAYBE had two hours of sleep since she woke up at 10 this morning. She doesn't want anything, we eventually just let her cry it out for a little bit. She eventually fell asleep and now she's awake again. I'm falling the fuck apart. I was diagnosed with PPD and I can't get myself to want to take my fucking meds. I'm so fucking lost on what to do.

@inkedmomma, Maybe try a warm bottle? Or a bath? I went through the same issue with my daughter.

We always warm her bottles, and she's not hungry. I don't know if I want to give her a bath this late at night. I might just take her for a drive. I'm just at a lost cuz she's never ever this bad. @theinkedmommy

Just remember, she's not crying to be a pain, she doesn't know any better. I had to remind myself of this often when my daughter was colicky. A bath and a big warm bottle may do the trick. Or, if it's gas, then toss a swaddle blanket in the dryer until it's warm and press it against her belly. That will help to pass any gas. If she has a bassinet that vibrates, that will also help the tummy.

hugs to you momma. see if she will lay on your chest.. if you have a baby carrier it could be useful during the day. I'm sorry you're going through such a rough time :(

@inkedmomma, Maybe her belly hurts? Could she possibly have trapped gas? Try burping her again. Maybe do like Gypsy said & see if she'll lay on your chest.
