Help meee
I know this is normal... but I had my baby 4 days ago, and I cannot sleep EVER. I swear if I did what she wanted she would literally feed from 10 pm to 8 am nonstop. And the only place she will sleep for more than 2 minutes is right beside me which I don't want to do because it's dangerous. As soon as we put her down to sleep, she starts cooing, and within a few minutes she is screaming. I feed her a lot, like 14 times a day and supplement with formula so I simply cannot believe she is STILL hungry. And no, her diaper is not poopy. I literally have no idea what she needs or wants and my recovery has been really painful so I NEED rest. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Update:
Apparently my husband has magical rocking abilities. I started bawling and freaked out a little.. and he was like "ok calm down, let me try." And he just rocked her in his own way and put her down and she's been out for 2 hours 😱 I had to get up and check in her because I randomly woke up and was like "there's no way she's been asleep this long!" Anyway, thanks for all the advice. Hopefully we can use some of these things to try to get her asleep before 1 am sometime... 😴🙃
