Advice please

My 6 week old baby cries a lot, she’s very fussy, won’t let me put her down for more than 5 mins, the only time she’s quiet is when she’s feeding or asleep. Is something wrong ? Are all babies like this? I’m a FTM so don’t know what’s normal but I can feel myself getting upset because she always seems upset!?

My little one is the same... And I cannot leave him crying for long as he screaming his lungs out!

Very normal! It will get better, so hang in there! For now she just wants mummy! x

@Yuliia same but it’s just so draining, I don’t know what to do to settle her x

@Charley when does it get better 😭😭 xx

My two it was around 12 weeks🫠 all different though, if you are sitting on the sofa try laying her just next to you but still talking to her etc, or try wearing her so you can still get things done xx

You can wear your baby so you can still get things done

@Ellie I do sometimes but it gives me a bad back 🤣

Make sure your burping properly after every feed and if she seems really fussy or she looks uncomfortable get her checked for dairy allergy. My little one was so fussy, turns out he had dairy allergy and it passed through my milk, then he started to have blood in his stool. I had to go dairy free and he stopped crying and fussing.

Yes, they’re all like that!
