Baby won't stop crying and nursing ?

Baby won't stop crying and nursing ?

My baby is 4 weeks old on Tuesday. I've been nursing him for the past 6 hours. It is currently 2:00 am. He will literally scream his head off if I try to stop him and the only thing that comforts him is nursing. I have no idea what is wrong with him ? he has cluster fed before but not to where he screams when I stop. He doesn't have a fever. He's having wet and dirty diapers. He's been progressively getting fussier the last couple of days but this is horrible. Is anyone else going through something like this ? I think he might have gas and I've given him the gas drops too.

no he is probably using your boob as a paci.. you will have to pay more attention to when he is done eating so you don't leave the boob in his mouth and he is falling asleep and using it as a paci.. hopefully if you have one on hand try switching it out for the nipple and see if that calms him down.

It could be a couple things but I think 4 weeks is a growth spurt time. Baby's probably also using you as a pacifier/for comfort. Hang in there mama!

I went through the same thing with my son when he was a baby. He would cry all night long and just want to suck on my boob all night long, but during the day he was different and didnt need the boob all day. After a few looong frustrating nights, I ended up pumping and found that one of my breast wasnt producing much milk at all, so I ended up doing a combo of pumping and nursing. Before I went to bed I made sure he had a bottle and went to bed full, then the next feeding I would nurse, then the next a bottle. I mostly gave him bottles during the day too, hoping that maybe he wouldnt become too attached to my nips. That seemed to work best for us, he would at least let me put him down to sleep for about 3 hours at at time. But it eventually got to a point that I simply couldnt keep up with his demand and had to supplement with formula.

Also, keep in mind that what you eat, your baby eats through your milk. Maybe you ate something that made him fussy? Its hard trying to figure out what foods might make him fussy, but maybe you ate something new? My cousins baby will get fussy if she eats chocolate chip cookies and then nurses. Just something to keep in mind...

I hope you are able to find something that works for you and your little guy. Keep your chin up... I know how frustrating it can be!! Good luck!!

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!

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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
