Unhappy baby?

Question

Does anyone else feel like if baby isnt feeding or sleeping that they are crying...
I get about an hour between 7-8am 3-4pm, and bath time from 8:30-9pm of my little one being 'happy' - otherwise he is asleep or crying it feels like...  hard to console him and he often fights sleep (which he is very good sleeper once asleep)
Anyone else?  Maybe this is how 5w old babies are?
I dont feel its food related... baby burps after feeds...  has normal poo... rarely spits up and was 'fine' up until a week or so ago

Answer

Mine was like that week 5. It gets better! Although mine spends a lot more time awake now, he's usually pretty happy, smiling and kicking for hours.

Answer

Honestly It feels like if my baby is awake, she’s pissed off at something. Nothing soothes her. 
Currently going on hour 3 of screaming. I got about 2 hours of sleep last night. 
Doesn’t matter if I feed her, she screams. If I change her, she screams. I hold her, scream. I put her down, scream. I play with her, scream. This kid is the most unhappy baby in the world and I’m damn exhausted. 
I used to dread nighttime because she was up all the time but she napped great during the day. Now I dread daytime, nighttime, and everything in between because she’s just SO unhappy about everything. She doesn’t nap more than 30-45 minutes. She doesn’t sleep anymore, and she’s always tired because of it. But does it help her sleep better/longer? No. I’m at my wits end.

Answer

My son is 8 weeks old now and from when he was 5 weeks old he screamed and cried unless he was sleeping or eating. 
I took him to the chiropractor today to find out his neck on the right side was out so bad. Highly recommend finding a good baby chiropractor and taking your baby in. He is happy and content now. Honestly can’t believe it. He wouldn’t last 2 minutes in a swing or play pen. Tonight he laid in his play pen awake for 2 hours.

Answer

Yup

Answer

I am having the same issue at five weeks old.  As I understand,  they are having a mental leap at this time and it causes them to be cranky, cry and be clingy.   Now,  we have cold on top of it...  so sad.
