Miserable

Honestly my days are miserable all day I just deal with a crying baby she’s so miserable and it’s making me depressed I’ve taken her to the doctors/ health visitors as she just cry’s constantly since she was born if she’s not asleep she’s crying tbh It’s making my life miserable all I hear is crying even when I try sleep at night when she’s asleep She barley sleeps to I just have no escape it’s actually like torture for me now

Sorry to hear this. I understand this can be frustrating. What could be the reason she is crying so much? Is it colic or silent reflux maybe?

Do you have anyone around that can take her an hour for you to go out and do something for yourself? xx

@Saida no idea she’s always been a miserable baby always crying she does have reflux but I do everything I was told to help that I’ve also cut out literally everything from my diet to try help her with possible allergy’s etc she does have colic as been told by doctors many times

@Elle I hve family like my mum and nan but they do not respect my rules and call me a “pussy” I know weird choice of words for getting annoyed I don’t let them kiss her🤦🏻‍♀️they also just make me feel awful about her crying so much like I’m not doing everything I can it’s exhausting

Also she wakes constantly I think this is the hardest part as just now she awake and takes ages to get back to sleep I’m talking 1/2 hours each time she wakes meaning I’m getting no sleep at all

Oh yes so they aren't helpful. Also what's this thing with kissing babies for real? 😡 Does she sleep when carried in the sling or the pram? Have you looked for support groups in your area?

@Elle I know drives me insane honestly I swear they even get annoyed when I say can you wash ur hands before touching her yeah she does however I can’t sleep when she’s in these which is what I need 😖x

Have you tried cosleeping? My girl wouldn't sleep in her next2me and we ended up both extremely tired. We started cosleeping first with Dad watching us during naps and now we only cosleep and it's been amazing honestly. I know there's a lot of shame and guilt about cosleeping but recent research has shown that it is safer for breastfed babies over 3 months to safe bed share than to be in their own beds !

My baby was like this, I realised they were getting bored indoors. So started giving them a long bath if they were crying which they enjoy and keeps them occupied, or long walks in the pram. Has been so much happier since getting out of the house instead of sitting in. Even with all the toys and play mat, they just like being out and about.

Could be silent reflux or colic. Look in to cranial osteopathy 🤞🏼
