First time posting in here. I was a part of bb.
My little boy is almost 6 months old. Long story short we tried for over 3 1/2 years to get pregnant and finally did. My pregnancy was full of complications and doctors telling me to terminate. He was born early and had even more complications. He's had surgeries and more to come. He spent his first 2 months of life in the hospital with procedure after procedures and surgeries too. By then i was already so emotionally drained. I had just done a horrible pregnancy, spent 5 weeks in the hospital myself and then all his stuff. Fast forward to now and I'm falling apart. He hasn't stopped crying since the day we brought him home. He litterally hasn't gone a day where he doesn't cry within a 5 minute period. And no, I'm not over exaggerating...I've timed it. Naps are hard to come by, I can't even go to the bathroom without him crying so hard he makes himself sick, and the crying is pushing me over the edge. I've always wanted to be a mommy and now I don't feel like I'm ment to be one. Doctors wont listen and say he just has separation anxiety. But even when I'm holding him, loving on him, playing with him, he still crys.
I don't know what to do.

We do use them, he usually just spits it out to make himself mad again though. 🙁
Seems like ove tried everything, lights, music, singing to him, rocking him, cuddling him, laying next to him, swaddling, swings (which used to work wonders but doesn't anymore) baths, getting him naked, playing, tickling, loud bright toys, soft quiet toys, we've even tried the YouTube videos that people made for babies that have the soft music with calming images or whatever...
Nothing seems to work.
And he fights sleep like I've never seen before. He shakes his head, tenses up, crys so hard that he refluxs, spits his binky right when hes starting to fall asleep. Doing the sushhh thing used to work but it doesn't anymore. Lightly touching his face used to work but doesn't anymore.
I'm at a loss. I've got 20 nieces and nephews, worked in day cares and even baby sat for days/nights at a time. No baby I have ever seen has been this hard.
Im sorry that you having a tough time momma. I don't have any advice for you but you were meant to be a momma. Your baby loves. I hope things get easier soon for you. I really feel for you. I have 3 daughters and my youngest has hit me like a ton of bricks. She has colic and gas since we bought her home too.
Do you use paci’s? Have you played music to him and sang to him? Have you made sure he isn’t gassy? Gas is the main reason my son won’t stop crying, and don’t feel bad you’re a good mom it’s just hard for everyone especially at the new born stage because they cry a lot and fight their sleep and it’s overwhelming and stressful because you’re still learning about the baby and the baby is still learning about you it just takes time to get used to it trust me I had the most difficult time with my son
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
@itsamemario, you deleted your post before I could hit send but this is my comment: I don’t know if this answers your question but this is my answer.
My son is 7 and he knows race and color. Why? Because he himself comes from a family that is multi racial and because he has already experienced racism. I also believe as his mother it’s my job to teach him color and the cold hard truth about society. He knows what’s going on in this world. I’d be hurting him if I allowed him to blindly walk out...
Find another new doctor momma.
Do you get breaks, because you need some time to breathe.
It sounds like you're doing all that you can. He may just be a high needs baby, but it will get better.
Right now it's the only way he can communicate and he may be in pain. Keep pushing doctors, advocate for him and be firm in what you tell them. If they try to talk over you saying separation anxiety make it Very clear that you disagree as he is doing this constantly when you're there comforting him and doing your best.
And if you need to see a doctor yourself because surely this can lead to depression, do so. Heck an hour of therapy may just be what you need to clear your mind.
But always seek help when needed even if it's a minute alone.
Child he have reflux or a milk allergy? Or could there be complications from a surgery? Or perhaps something in one of his conditions causing pain
