New mum help?

Melissa

Hey everyone,

I'm new here and my little one is 12 weeks. She is majority of the time grizzly. I do all the checks and try to make sure she is entertained. She only sleeps less than an hour during daytime naps and from 2pm onwards to 9pm barely even sleeps. She fights it and always wakes crying in her light sleep cycle. I do let it go to see if she settles but never does. Even when we hold her she will still wake  crying.

Any suggestions? She doesn't like the carrier, pram, swing or any of those things. Gets bored after 5 minutes of certain play and I am constantly having to swap activities or hold her during light sleep . She needs to be rocked to sleep.

She also seems to be always hungry before I settle her to sleep but if I put her on the boob she doesn't drink, just fusses. She has a big drink once awake from her naps. But she doesn't last the 2.5 to 3.5 hours. She feeds every 2 hours.

I have a fast let down and did have an oversupply which is now settled and I always have enough milk so not sure what's happening. She won't take the dummy anymore either.
