5 week old won’t sleep

Aww I'm really sorry you both are going through this. Does she have wind?

She may have colic, my 7 week old was very similar from 4 weeks. Ive been using Infacol and colic bottles, thankfully we've had better days/ nights for the past week 🤞

It may be that, hopefully you all get some sleep soon x

4 weeks here and definitely becoming more challenging to get her to sleep in an evening , a lot of rocking, BF on and off/ dummy inserting and sling use going on 🤦‍♀️

I’m exactly the same, 5 weeks and he will not sleep unless in the car/buggy/on the move
He’s not fussing anymore.. we used infacol to help with the wind, but he just lies there and won’t sleep or has 15-30 min naps and it makes putting him down to bed a screaming match because he’s too tired to eat but too hungry to sleep!
I completely get where you’re at

Sending good luck your way ❤️

We’ve got the same today/tonight with our 4 week old. Besides one 3 hour nap stretch this morning each nap the rest of the day has been no longer than an hour. Constantly on/off breastfeeding. I have a feeling we are in for a long night….

What’s the setting like during the day I had issues with my 5 weeks old having huge wake windows then being overtired and fussy at night , I learnt quite quickly I couldn’t have things like her facing the tv or the lamp needed to be behind her because she would
Fixate on them and just stay awake quite content looking at particular things. Your situation does sound different to mine but just incase thought I’d comment xx

My 7 week old sleeps thought the day but won't sleep at night I'm crying all the time somebody help

😢😢

I’m in the same boat. She fights sleep so much during the day, I put her down and she’s instantly awake. She gets to the point in the evening where she is screaming so much because she’s overtired, it’s exhausting

Do you have a carrier/sling? I feel like I can always settle my baby down with baby wearing. It's not ideal obviously if your goal is to also have a nap or to have a shower or something but it might help?
My first wouldn't ever be put down for a nap in the day and I was never able to get around that, he always had to he moving in the pram or sleeping on me so I understand your frustration.

My daughter is 7 weeks old today and exactly the same right now. She only wants to sleep on my chest and fights and screams when I try to get her to latch.
I've been trying giving her a feed, a bath, a baby massage and then another feed at night. It seem to help give us a couple of hours break.
