I’m so tired but I can’t sleep. Every time I lay the baby down he wakes up after like 10 minutes. 😴
Mommies, thoughts on picking up or coddling a newborn every time they cry? My baby’s been fussy the last couple of days and me or my husband will pick her up every time she cries and she’s getting used to that I’m assuming. I just don’t want her to be fussy and she cries like someone’s murdering her.
Mommies I need advice.... So last night was night 15 of me sleep training my daughter from sleeping with me to now sleeping in her new crib. It has been EXHAUSTING! When she slept with me she would sleep straight throughout the night. Now she wakes up at the least, 5 times throughout the night. She has waken up at most 8/9 times at night. There have been times where I’m patting her for an 1 hour-2hours straight to get her back to sleep when she has waken up at one of those times🥵. So I have felt like a complete failure because I am delirious due to sleep deprivation, and I’m just so exhausted from this whole journey and can’t catch up with my sleep that when she’s waken up the past two nights at 7am, I haven’t been able to push through my exhaustion and I just put her in the bed with me for an hour or an hour and a half until we wake up just so I can get a little sleep. I don’t want to confuse her and I don’t want all the work I’ve done so far to be a waste because of putting her in bed with me these past two times. I don’t have anyone to take turns with me because I’m a single mom. And at times my bed wakes her back up after putting her to sleep because it’s so noisy 🙄. I’m working on that part, lol. I’ve let her sleep with a shirt of mine that smelled like me 3 nights and it didn’t help. I’ve even given her a bed baby that she sleeps with. What would you guys do in my case.??

That’s the thing it’s a trial and error with your baby 😫

Lol, you and I both. My baby was constipated. She did give me a poopy diaper, but she cried from 9pm to 3am on and off. Can't win for losing. I had been giving her karo syrup recommended by her pediatrician, but I don't want her to be dependent on any of that stuff so I didn't give her any the last 2 days, regret it now!

@myriahboyett710, I know this is a late post, but I was going through something similar. My daughter was fussy all day and night. She would cry when ever she was awake. It was so bad I couldn't even pump so she is strictly formula now.I've had to switch her formula 3x. Her pediatrician has me giving her gas drops and they have been heaven sent. I give her massages at bath time and it releases some, but the gas drops works and she is now able to sit without crying for a few and sleeps a little longer.

What gas drops did she prescribe?

Is she drinking formula? If so maybe try a different formula for sensitive tummies.

No, I’ve been pumping and bottle feeding her. I feel so bad, every time after she eats I’ll get her calm and happy for about 15 minutes and then the crying starts.

she could be sensitive to dairy in your diet. I had to go dairy free while I was breastfeeding.
