Our 2 month old has just got into this wonderful habit too and oh my it's trying 🙈. Between 5pm-8pm we can basically expect screaming unless we walk around the house bouncing him constantly
My little boy used to do this - I believe this is very common around 4 months and can be known as the witching hours. I used to push him around in pushchair in house
Our baby did this when she turned 4 months toon- she's 5 months now and doesn't do it at all - so surreal!! We just took it as a phase as they are becoming so aware and alert and were exhausted by the end of the day. She's fine now!
It’s called the witching hour and is pretty common! X
My girl did that for the first month or so. She would scream for 5-6 hours sometimes. It was horrendous. The only thing that helped was food. A lot of food. Luckily she doesn’t do that anymore. It was terrible.
@Amy was just going to say the same thing!
Yeah my 4 month old does the same, shes fine until after the bath, she screams and wont calm down even though we have a routine with her and she loves it. I think it's just them calming down after the whole day, that's how i see it, they take so much in everyday, new sounds, smells etc, it can be a lot for them and they need an outlet to take it out. I've heard some mums call it the 'witching hour' or 'purple crying' . You're not the only one struggling with this, goodluck to you and lots of patience 🩷
