I don't know what to do with my 7 week old. I literally cannot put him down. I cannot let him cry (hes too young for that) but he even wants to SLEEP in my arms. Even when he falls asleep I try to put him down during the day and he immediately starts squirming and within minutes he's awake and crying for me. He hates the bouncer, the crib, the bassinett, the swing, the couch, the boppy - all of these I've tried and he only lasts a few minutes before he realizes mommy's not holding him. I am trying to be patient, but I have yet to feed myself, shower, or even think about cleaning my house!! HELP

My little guy fusses during the swaddle but afterward he's good. Maybe keep trying. They grow out of it. I'm sorry. You'll get through this. Just keep trying. Also the rock n play is really good it makes them feel like they are being held.

Baby carriers are my relief.

Most definitely, he's loves the Baby Bjorn, but I can't carry him in there all day. As soon as I take him out, he's back fussing again 😕 @queeneden

I'm going to try swaddling him again, Ive stopped since he was about 3 weeks because he hated being restrained but I'm going to give it another shot, thank you 😩 @127lovie

Honestly it's what I've had to do a few times. That's just the reality of a newborn. 24/7 attention, holding, and feeding.

Awww. I completely understand because my 6 week old daughter is the same way.
It's so bad that I dread having to drive anywhere bc she hates the carseat too. She seriously cries until she sounds like she is gagging.
