Hi Fatima, thank you for your answer. I only swaddle her when she cries as it works and she gets calmer. I then remove her from the swaddle and she is happy again. My concern is related to her frustration, she starts crying so much that hugs, kisses and reassurance doesn't help. Was wondering if this js normal for a baby.
Hmm, mine defo does get a bit overstimulated with toys but there is normally quite a few signals before she gets really upset. Just wondering how she’s playing with them e.g is she alone with the toys on the mat? Are there a few out at a time? How long is she playing with them etc? Just asking these as I’m wondering if it’s something else like not wanting to be alone or having too many things in her environment or the position she’s in that’s stressing her out rather than the toy itself if that makes sense! I would keep a close eye next time she’s interacting with toys and see if you can see any signals that tell you she’s getting frustrated and then try and switch things up (like put her on her tummy or supported sitting or a different toy etc) at that point and see how she does ❤️

They get frustrated with some because they can't get it to do what they want, for example, my LB gets frustrated at this one teether toy because he wants to get it all in his mouth and can't because it's too big and his mouth is small 🤦🏾‍♀️ But it depends on what sort of toy it is, sometimes it's because they've got overstimulated. Removing the toy and picking up should work. Also, just a point to think about, at this point babies should be transitioning out of swaddling because they start practising rolling etc. And need their arms
