I feel like I'm going insane. My daughter is two weeks almost three and I love her to death but I'm going crazy with lack of sleep at night. Tonight is the worst. She keeps waking up every 5 minutes it seems like, whining. Not crying just fucking whining. And moving like crazy. So I try to burp her. She is so difficult to burp!! Even after a feeding! Then I feed her again and I do breastfeed and she falls asleep 5 minutes on the nipple. I wait a few minutes just holding her and try to lay us both down. She moves until she wakes up. Then I have to do it all over again. Diaper is clean she just won't go to sleep and I even tried just letting her cry to help tire herself out. But she isn't really crying just yelling/whimpering/whining/pouting and will just yell louder. Then get quiet for a bit then yell some more. She is sleep and swaddled right now on my chest as I sit up typing this out exhausted out of my mind at 5:25am. Im afraid to lay down thinking she will wake up again. No she doesn't want her pacifier. And I don't want her comfort sucking on me all night. I wish I had help. I even gave her some pumped milk in a bottle and she stayed up off that even. I am miserable right now I want to run away.

@motherofthemoon, my baby wouldn't sleep anywhere else but on my chest as well When she was born. And for my own sanity I just got in the middle of the bed with pillows around me n let her sleep on me. she still needs to be on my chest to fall asleep but I can put her on her belly in her crib now n she will sleep. I started letting her sleep on her belly at like 8mo cuz I was so scary, but it's just how she likes to sleep.
@2-mommies that's funny when she finally did fall asleep while I was making this post she was on my chest. I put her in her rocker and she slept for like an hour before I was woke up to her wailing. I put her back on my chest and we both slept like that for a few hours. So I guess she is gonna sleep on my chest from now on until I figure something else out.
I know it doesn't seem like it right now, but it does get easier. My youngest was very difficult when it came to sleep. I swear he never napped more than 10 min at a time. The only way I got any sleep was to let him sleep on my chest. He finally started to sleep on his own in his crib when he was about 3.5 months. I know it seems like it will never end and your losing your mind, but this shall pass momma. Hang in there and I pray your little angel let's you get some rest.
@denise1493 yes my baby is literally only 2 weeks and 5 days and I have discovered she likes to sleep on her stomach too. So I let her sleep like that for while I am awoke and right before I fall asleep I will grab her and try to put her on her back which she doesn't really care for. Or she likes to sleep on her side too. But only if I'm literally right next to her with my arm around her. Other than all that she sleeps on my chest and the pillow thing does work nicely, I did that last night I stuffed everything around me for my own comfort and let her sleep on me. It's a hassle but whatever helps her stay asleep and me sleep. But I breastfeed so I wake up every 3 hours anyways if she is woke or not to make sure she tries to eat. I'm
