Baby never sleeps peacefully

chloe

Hi Everyone,

I have a little girl that’s about to turn one month. She is a pretty intense baby (as my doc put it). A big eater and light sleeper. She never sleeps very peacefully...always grunting and clearing her throat type sounds. Sometimes random short cry and stops and sometimes whining. Never ever a sound peaceful restful deep sleep which is why I think she is never fully rested. She wakes up very mad. I mean REALLY mad. They say hunger cries are “too late” and you missed the signal but we are at feeding approx 2-3 max hour window and she eats 3 ounces sometimes 3.5 of mix breastmilk and gentle ease efamil formula. I feel like she never has a calm moment period. Even when she’s eating she is in mad fury! I pace feed to keep her from choking and she still chokes and she’s mad as ever. Any ideas guys? I feel awful. It seems I have the unhappiest baby. I made the mistake of watching some YouTubes “day in the life of a newborn” that are waaaaaaay nothing like my days. Battle 24/7. Please advise. I feel so desperate.
