Non-stop crying

Sorry to hear mama. Could they have a cow milk allergy? I wonder if it’s hurting their tummy causing the crying? Xxx

I thought my first baby cried a lot but after a while I realized he was just a little piggy that needed a lot more frequent feeding. Does he accept more food when he's upset?

Ah I’m so sorry 😭 Have you tried probiotic drops, gripe water, or gas drops? (If it is tummy issues?) Are you able to drive and get out in some fresh air? Maybe a car ride will help baby fall asleep? Or a walk in the stroller?

Amy ive been wondering the same thing but his doctors have been zero help.. Tara he is a little piggy and does settle down with feeding but seems like he spits up more. Abby I have giving his gas drops but doesn't seem to help him. Car rides help fall asleep but I can't transfer him from car seat to bassinet/crib or he wakes up. And walk in stroller where im located is a no go its snowing

Are you breastfeeding or formula? If BF, try cutting out dairy. It can take a couple of weeks to get out of your system. If formula, maybe look at goat milk ones? Xxx

My Little Man who is mostly bottle fed did much better after I switched bottles cause he was taking in too much air. I switched the pigeon bottle with the smallest nipple opening. But that said, he still turns into an inconsolable terror 2-3 hours each night. ♥️

Amy he is both breast and formula because my supply is so low but I don't do dairy so that shouldn't be the issue Celeste I recently tried switching bottles from mam to dr browns but I haven't noticed a difference

Plenty of skin to skin should help milk increase 🤍 may be worth switching to a diff formula? Is it worth another chat with a doc about it? Xxx

If he settles with feeding, I'd try increasing the frequency but maybe not give too much at once. If he spits up after, he might need more burping or some burping mid-feed. The other thing is maybe he is comforted by the sucking, so try a good pacifier between feeds :)

Aw this breaks my heart because this was me with my first son. Turned out he had a milk protein allergy and a dairy intolerance. I put him on soy formula and he was fixed. It was night and day. He was also on omeprazole for reflux prescribed by the doctor. These two weeks before i figured out what was wrong was sooo painful, i cried 24:7, baby was crying 24:7, my mom came over to help and she would bring ear plugs because she couldn’t bear to listen to the screams. I would be walking the block at 11pm trying to settle a screaming baby in my carrier. Times were soo hard. Switching to formula saved me as well as the windi gas passer. I was hesitant to start using it but i ended up using it like 3-4 x per day and it helped him get all of his gas out .i swear by that thing… also feeding in super small increments and burping every other minute or two to try to prevent gas build up. Holding them Upright for 20 mins after a feeding. We also added risers to his bassinet so it was just ver

Very mildly tilted overnight to help with reflux Hang in there, those two weeks were some of the toughest times of my life, I look back at photos and there’s mascara all over my face, and I just looked dead to the world. Please ask for help when you need it and rely on your support system 🥲 sending a hug

My first couldn't handle soy, dairy, gluten and egg. Have you tried an allergy formula like neocate gold?

ugh, that sounds super tough, I'm so sorry you’re going through this... have you tried just letting him cry for a bit while you take a breather? sometimes they just need to let it out, and you need a moment too. Just looked it up on the 'Heal Baby Care App' and here’s what it says: "I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way; it sounds incredibly overwhelming. It’s common for babies to cry a lot, especially in the early weeks, but it’s important to address both your well-being and your baby's needs. Have you noticed if there are specific times when he cries more, or if there are any signs of discomfort, like arching his back or clenching his fists? In the meantime, consider trying gentle white noise or a warm bath, as these can sometimes soothe babies.

I really sympathize with you as my first born was like this. After months of struggling we discovered he had silent reflux and cmpa. We were put on a dairy free formula, omeprazole and a thickener to keep the formula down (I swear by the thickener carobel as it seemed to make the biggest difference). In terms of right now for you- we swore by bouncing on the yoga ball (baby in a carrier/ on you), holding upright for half hour after feeds (exhausting but crucial), using our kitchen fan to get him to sleep, earplugs and taking turns where possible for our own sanity. It was the hardest time of our lives and I want you to know that not all babies are like this. Go to your GP, beg for help (don’t let them fob you off as they did me for weeks on end). It sounds awful as it feels neverending but this will pass… my little boy became the happiest most adventurous little baby once he was settled, could sit up and he was weaned. 💙
