Please- Need Emotional Support

Lauren

My beautiful, healthy, baby boy, 11 weeks old, has taken to bouts of INTENSE, relentless crying at night for the past 5 days. I'm talking about two to three hours of blood curling screams. I end up with ringing ears every time from it. I have a good support group at home, but I'm getting frustrated, and I'm normally very good at controlling my emotions. No, before anyone asks, don't worry, i am NOT, nor would i ever, EVER, want to shake or harm my child, regardless of the level of frustration and raw nerves!

Did your babies cry like this? Could you figure out a cause besides just a bout of the fussies? How did you help sooth them?
