Desperate
My little man is 9weeks old and ever since he was about 2 weeks, he will not stop crying all day and keeps
Waking up through out the night for no reason but to scream and then go back to sleep. It is driving me insane, I cannot get anything done and the only time he is settled is if he falls asleep on me. I have tried absolutely everything, white noise, red light, bath before bed, singing, massage, put my shirt, colic medicine.. dark room for both night sleep and day naps, and a few other things. I make sure we stick to the normal wake time and feed-play-sleep. If I put him down for a day nap he will almost instantly open his eyes and start crying until I pick him back up again. I try to leave him and close the door for a few minutes but he gets so worked up and does not stop crying.
I understand babies go through a leap around this time and also that their crying peaks at this age however I’m wondering if anyone has experienced this before and if so, was their anything in particular you found that helped? When did the crying episodes settle? I don’t want this to become a habit. I am one exhausted mamma and I am going to lose my mind 😰
