Anyone still have a difficult/ crying baby?

Yes, here😭. I heard of the term velcro baby the other day. I hit a point where I just accept it.

What helps me is slinging her. I also try to go for a walk once a day for my own mental health.

@Bilan yeh she's only happy in the sling when she is asleep though 🙈 Think she's just quite an unsettled baby. Also have a 4 year old which makes it so hard!

So glad this isn’t just me! He’s like a koala, has to have constant contact for naps (which he is not keen on at the best of times), anything past late afternoon, he has just had enough & is fussy and aggy until bath&bed come around! (even that takes some convincing and a lot of tag teaming!)

Yes!! I was really hoping it might have started getting better now too. Mine wants to constantly be held, even at night too, it’s exhausting

I've been doing a lot of work on naps at the moment and it's not always perfect but I've noticed she is a much happier baby when she is having a nap every 1.15 - 1.5 hours and I'm trying to ensure each nap lasts at least 1.5 - 2 hours.
She would often nap for just 20 mins and I learnt that newborns take at least 45 minutes to go through a complete sleep cycle so anything less than this isn't restorative sleep so now I try and keep her naps longer and it's made such a difference to her x

@Monique yeh I get mine to sleep every 1.15hrs or she is worse. Her naps are still only 20mins I keep rocking after but no luck extending them. How did you do it?!
