Ready to give up

Don’t get me wrong I LOVE my baby and love being his mom. But I’m ready for the newborn stage to be over. I’m ready for my baby to be able to play, start to crawl, able to situp unassisted , able to feed himself his bottle, able to be entertained without me having to hold him all of the time. I’m ready for his first laugh, so that I know he is happy. All he does is cry & I don’t know what’s wrong. I’ve tried everything. I literally have to hold him all day long or he will cry bloody tears. When does it get easier? I’m at my wits end.
