My daughter turns 6 months soon and will not stop crying. She has NEVERRR been like this at all. I put her down, she cries, I hold her, she cries. I am so tired and slowly going insane. I don’t know why she’s so sad. She doesn’t want a bottle, she doesn’t want to play and she doesn’t want to sleep. Someone please tell me this is normal or if I should take her to a doctor

My daughter is similar age and was like this all of last week and usually so so happy, she’s now come out with a cough / cold so could be the same for you or it could be her teeth (try some teething powder to see if it helps?). I guess she just wants her comfort whilst she’s feeling poorly which is similar to what we want when ill.
If it gives you peace of mind take her to get checked by the docs x

Maybe teething or maybe she coming down with something my baby is 1 and he’s been crying for days I didn’t know what was wrong with him until I had at the doctors he was getting he’s back teeth and he had a teething rash maybe call the doctor see if you can get appointment for her have you anyone who can have the baby for few hours so you can get some rest i hope everything is ok xx

So sorry mama. My LO refused daytime naps last week and i felt dead.. so i can only imagine the screaming 🥹
Maybe she's in pain somewhere.. also thinking it could be her teethies. Try calpol.. if she is crying go straight for the big stuff. Also stock up on teething granules and gels. Apparently a bath or a walk outside helps settle them but when you're tired those are the last things you wanna do.
If that fails, definitely GP.

That's a tough time for the mom and the kid. I would just take her to the doctor. At least you can rule out some medical problems. ❤️

Mine is the same! Has been for a couple of weeks

Only thing I can think is what’s been suggested maybe teething. My little girl is just under 6 months & she started teething a few weeks back. She was the same normally a happy & content baby but for almost a week straight all she did was cry & cry. Didn’t matter what I did she wasn’t happy. As soon as they popped through she went back to her normal bubbly self. I hope you’ve manage to figure it out x

I'd would go to the doctor's, could be a number of things, teething, a virus, constipation. Good luck and don't be afraid to ask for help from family/ friends to give you a break.

So me and my mum were just in the playground with my 21 month old. We made our way to a little playhouse and there was another little boy who seemed the same age, maybe a little older with his dad and older brother nearby.
I looked at the dad and he seemed so laid back he might aswell of been laid in the bushes. One earphone in, kind of looked distant.
I encourage my son into this playhouse, holding his hand. The little boy comes over and basically barges his way in and stands in the way so my son couldn’t come in. I’m obviously still encouraging him to go in and trying to chat to this little boy about how nice the playhouse is.
He swipes some leaves and sticks off a little table inside which makes my son jump so he steps back and this little boy leaves. He then follows us to the slide and he’s using his body to basically block my son. Kicking his leg so he can’t get on. The slide was massive and attached to a massive climbing frame. There was plenty of space for several kids.
It got to the point where we had to explain to this little boy that his behaviour isn’t very nice and to stop. The dad was on his phone still with an earphone in.
Now I try my hardest, even more so now I’m a mum to not judge and fully understand kids are kids and sharing, social skills ect are being learnt but I feel like those kids were in charge of their dad, not the other way around. At what point do you stop being so understanding and throat punch the dad 🤷🏽♀️

From the moment I gave birth to a boy I’ve been hearing comments about how he’s going to be rude and mess with all the girls and he won’t have any behavior. I don’t understand why they insist and on saying these things just because he’s a boy is this normal comment for a baby boy?

Hi guys, so just want to check see if anyone’s had the same thing happen so I’m not going mad. I breastfed my baby for about 12 weeks then stopped my supply gradually. Anyway fast forward 2 months, it would appear I’ve got breastmilk all of sudden leaking this morning, is this normal?😂😩

Have we put our babies in their own rooms yet?? I know it’s recommended around 6 months but I don’t feel ready yet. Can someone educate me on why we are supposed to do it at this age??
