Finding it really difficult getting my 10 week old to settle for bed
We’ve brought her bedtime earlier to between 8-9pm as we usually start her day from around 10/11am
It’s come to a point where she’s constantly getting over tired and then not drinking her milk properly. Both combined and she gets frustrated because she needs both, doesn’t know which to have first and emotions are high
This is starting to happen during the day now too - difficult to settle for a nap or drink her milk
She’s discovered her fingers/hands and loves chewing on them but last couple of days, more and more where she gets frustrated too
Any advice please? I don’t know what to do and struggling to see her like this or not get burnt out trying to settle her

How are you trying to settle her right now? Like rocking, walking, etc?

Around 8-12 weeks PURPLE crying is at its peak. I'm going to be honest, I was so sleep deprived I don't remember much other than bouncing him around for hours while wearing noise-cancelling headphones and listening to a podcast or something. But this isn't a satisfying response on my part, so I hope someone else has better advice 😭
