I am going crazy. My 2 year old won’t stop screaming & crying. I’m trying to put my newborn to sleep. I’m not sure what’s wrong. He took a nap and he ate, but he’s angry with the baby near. He won’t let anything calm him. Any advice??

Possibly an ear infection? They can hurt like heck.

Doesn’t seem like it

Has he had any artificial colors? My daughter is a freaking bear if she has food dyes. Gummies, Popsicles, that kind of stuff.

@phoenixxxx yeah, it is worth looking at. Some food dyes are made up of some really weird stuff, like crushed up beetles. Red no 40 and no 2 are made from coal and petroleum. It is no wonder kids are allergic to it!

@phoenixxxx my aunt lives in New Hampshire and they just started getting them there. I will try to poke around, there's probably name brand stuff/another store brand that gets away from that stuff. Maybe someone made a list.
I just don't think it needs to be there when there are natural alternatives, companies are just all about profit. They're cheap to use. :(

@phoenixxxx just a little background on Aldi, they sell great products. It's all their own brand, like Trader Joe's (owned by the Aldi owners brother). They have minimal staffing to keep prices low, like 3 employees run it all. You have to take your own shopping bags or buy them inexpensively there. You need to take a quarter, you put it into the cart to rent it and then you get it back when you return the cart. It's their way of not paying someone to collect carts in the parking lot. It keeps their prices low, some things are 1/2 the price of the national brand and usually made by the same manufacturers to Aldi's specifications. I know General Mills makes their cereal.

Honestly with a 4 day old baby he’s probably having a hard time adjusting and is jealous and that’s the only way he knows how to get your attention. But it also could be something like an ear infection

My 16 month is the same way today
