Need some tips and tricks!

My baby absolutely HATES the car seat. Anyone else have this issue? My baby will scream her lungs out until someone takes her out. She cries to a point where she’ll choke on her spit. We’ve tried everything. Milk, toys, sounds, singing, fixing the cushions, fixing the belt, music, literally everything you can think of. But she will literally not stop screaming. Any tips? Baby girl also constantly has her hands in a fist and she’s starting to eat her fists. Should I be worried? Baby won’t eat more than 2oz every 3-4 hours. If we wake her up or try earlier to eat, she won’t. She’ll just scream at the bottle. Anyone have tips to get her to drink more from the bottle? Or drink from the bottle in general? It seems like every feeding time is a fight with her 🫠🫠 I’m a First time mom so I don’t know much so pls don’t judge me 😅😅 I just don’t know what to do lol

Car seat- make sure the head test part is at the right height, it can be adjusted. I did not know this and my baby screamed out of discomfort, then saw a YouTube video and realized it was at the shortest height and she was just uncomfortable. Seems silly now, but I had no idea. We have feeding issues as well. We warm the bottle and try to break it up into two mini feedings: 2 oz, wait 30 mins, do another 2 oz. It’s really frustrating but it sometimes helps. Our girl does the same thing with her fists, I think it’s a normal thing right now n

Fists are normal. Food thing can be normal… is she gaining weight OK? If so, no worries. Car seat, try putting a blanket or dirty clothes in there to make it smell more like you (take them out before putting her in ofc).

For the car seat issue: make sure she is not gassy the car seat may be painful is she’s full of gas and in a weird position.

Eating fists are normal. They’re just discovering their hands and my son does it all the time. Just baby things☺️

My baby does the same and I haven’t found a solution to calm her down. She just doesn’t like car rides yet.
