Is it normal to cry at least 3 days a week every week since giving birth. I am utterly miserable. I hate this. I seriously would love nothing more than to disappear. Not suicidally just run away. I can’t deal with the constant crying. All day every day. For weeks on end. Nothing I do is good enough. Nothing works. I lose my temper. I lose my patience. I would never hurt baby but I have to walk away and leave them crying for 15-30m while I calm down. And this happens around 10 times a day. I go to the next room to scream and curse. I seriously have exhausted every option. Nothing ever works. No one listens or understands. I just ignore the constant crying. I try to remain calm but in the end I have to say things like just shut up or that’s enough now to stop myself losing it completely.

I could have written the same when my boy was 3 weeks he was constant crying I couldn't do anything to help him it got better when he turned 3 months colic is hard it's not for the faint hearted I would break down crying every time 💔 😢

Hey!! This used to be me and it’s to tough! And you’re doing all the right things! Have you checked her for CMPA? doctors fobbed me off and told me it was colic but it turned out it was CMPA and once he was on the right milk he was a different baby! It maybe something to look into? ❤️

I’m so sorry your going through this. Go to your GP, and keep going untill they listen to you. Yes colic is common but there is normally a cause for colic. Have you tried an allergy formula encase dairy formula is causing baby pain? Have you tried gripe water? Helped my babies colic so much. Dont feel guilty for needing to walk away. But I would also suggest talking to your GP about your mental health. There’s support out there. You got this. I know people say it won’t last and it feels like a long road but honestly you will get there
