any tips? my daughter is 7 weeks old. she hates her swing an crib basically everything. she has to be held or she will scream . she doesn't sleep.. when I put hee down in her crib she wakes up within 30 min screaming when I get her she falls asleep on me an then I put her back an she's right back up again screaming. I'm at a loss did I do something wrong?. I use white noise, an tried swaddling but she hates it
I feel relieved that I'm not the only one who has to let her sleep on my chest... she won't sleep unless she's on my chest or right next to me with her head on my arm an me hugging her. I'm such a light sleeper so I trust myself to not squish her @princess_xox
My son was like that hun. I slept with him on my chest then i slowlh transitioned him sleeping right next to me. So now we cosleep. And he sleeps right next to me. He hates being on me now :( i miss it. It just takes time. My baby will now nap in the swing to. Lol. Just give it time and keep trying
My daughter was like this too. I ended up spending a lot of time letting her sleep on my chest just so that I could rest. But then I bought different sheets for her crib. They are almost like the minky baby blankets. Similar type of material. I bought mine at Target. It kept her bed from feeling cold when she was laid down or when she would scoot around throughout the night. She still didn't sleep all night or anything but it definitely helped.
I dunno how true this is or if it applies to older babies but I read that they fall into a light sleep at first and if they're moved in that time they will wake up but if you hold them for like 20 more mins after they fall asleep and then move them once they're in a deeper sleep they don't wake up that easy
My daughter is the same way. During the day she'll nap maybe once unless I'm holding her. At night she won't sleep unless I'm holding her so I don't sleep unless I'm holding her. I'm so tired and miss sleeping with my husband. I'm usually on the chaise lounge sleeping with her in my arms. She could be out like a light and I gently lay her down and she's wide awake wanting me to hold her again. I've tried everything my bed lounger and bouncy imaginable
@aliakr have you tried a heating pad on low before putting baby down, i used to have to put it in whereever i was going to put my son down. only for a few minutes then take it out and set him down, i figured out that the coldness would wake him up... or a glove with rice in it warmed up set on him so he thought it was my hand.
Have you tried colic and gas bottles? Also little remedies gas drops are good. I had to use those two with my daughter when she was a newborn. God, she screamed so much! I also laid her on her sides with small pillows in her front torsor and on her back so she could feel held. BUT I know doctors and people don't recommend that because it's not safe. I stopped doing it when I saw my daughter would move around on her own. After that I laid her on the rocker play thing.
Hmm.. she may just not like sleeping on her back. It doesn't mean she does but some babies who have reflux don't like being on their backs but it's so frustrating cause that's the safest way. The only other thing I would know to do is to just talk to her doctor and see what they say. I'm sorry you're so tired!! I've been there
okay I'll try that tonight !! could it be because her stomach problems? @t142
oh I forgot to mention that I have a rock n play which she used to love but now she won't stay in it without screaming :( @blakesmommyyy
Hmm. Sounds like my daughter when she's teething. Try creating a nest around her. Place blankets in a circle and her in the middle. Like a nest. She wants to feel comfort.
You could try a rock and play or a bassinet it makes them feel more cozy and most of them vibrate
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
Holy hell!!!! So I walk into my sister's and the babysitter was SLEEPING!!!! She got here at 830 and I got here at 10, I have no idea how long she was sleeping but OMG!!! I waited for her to wake up. Meanwhile, my 4 kids are not the quietest bunch and when she did I told her she could go home. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 I am shaking. The baby screamed bloody murder when she saw me and would not let me put her down until she left. 😭
Baby won't bear weight on leg
I have a walking 10 month old and she has been extra fussy yesterday and today. Today I noticed she didn't really want to crawl, she would just cry until I came and picked her up. After I fed her, I tried setting her down to play with her big sister and she just started crying and wouldn't put any weight on her left leg. She will put weight down on her right leg but then just cries until you pick her back up. I thought maybe she just didn't want to be put down (as ...
I love how I repeatedly told my father in law not to let my daughter root through the toy box because she doesn’t want anything out of it anyway and he keeps picking her up and taking her to the toy box no matter how many times I tell her no and tell him she doesn’t even want anything out of there anyway. At first I told him “only let her get one toy” so she picks one up and he is still holding her over the toy box then tries to put her over the baby gate so she can grab more. I’m sorry but you ...
