Screaming 2 year old(updated)
My almost 2 year old is currently screaming for no apparent reason and I'm outside so I don't do something I'll regret. I love him more than anything but the past few months have been hell. I have an almost 2 year old and an 8 week old. My 8 week old has been having issues eating (screaming in pain for hours after he eats even if he burps) and my oldest is pushing every button I didn't know I had. So I'm right outside my front door smoking a cigarette and I'm not even ashamed. Mom shame me all you want because at this point, it's all that's keeping my sanity. 🤷
Update:
Thank you everyone for the support! I never knew having 2 kids would be this difficult and nerve racking but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. I think my 2 year old was just having a bad day but it's never been that bad. I ended up loading the kids up and driving to my husband's shop (he's a mechanic). As soon as I got out of the car he could tell something was wrong and I just started crying. He had a talk with our oldest and that seemed to help. My husband knows that I can normally take it and when he saw how upset I was he knew that I was about to my breaking point.
As for our 2 Month old, his Dr switched him to the Enfamil ProSoBee and that has helped so so much. He still spits up if you don't burp him immediately after he eats but he's no longer screaming for hours after. The new formula is constipating him just like his Dr said so we're adding a little Karo syrup to his bottles. His Dr said his tummy is too young for fruit juice just yet. My MIL told us with our oldest to give him rice water so I may do that and see if it helps. Any advice would be great!
Again, thank you to everyone for not shaming me. I'm going through a really hard time right now and reading all the comments has helped my confidence so much! I'll add a picture of my boys ❤
My handsome 2 year old ❤
And my little man ❤
