Tired tired

10 wakings in total and one tired mama. If the dad calls me crancy today when he gets 8-9 hours unintrupted sleep i may just scream🥱😴

My daughter will be 6 months old in a few days time, and I feel like I am just drowning in sleep deprivation and I am miserable.

First off she was a very grumpy baby from 5 weeks old due to undiagnosed CMPA and severe reflux which finally got sorted about 2.5 months ago. And her sleep some what improved. Then we hit the 4 month sleep regression and she became grumpy and fussy all over again with nights being so different to the last and unpredictable.

Now I’m not sure what’s going on, but she literally goes down at 7pm and then will wake up babbling, grabbing feet for anything from 1-3hrs from 1am and once I manage to get her to sleep she wakes again and I am just tired as hell. She has also started rolling from back to tummy but can’t get from tummy to back and she gets very frustrated but carries on doing it every 3 minutes so I’m constantly having to mover her back over for her to do it again. Her day time naps are all over the place, yesterday she napped quite a lot but she’s also not been herself as she has a gunky eye (which I am seeing the GP today for)

I feel like it’s just one thing after another and nothing is ever consistent (she’s my second child - my first was so easy)

Please any advice on what I can do to tweak what is happening or if this is completely normal for 6 months. Or is my baby just going to be one of them babies 🫣☹️🥲

Day routine

Hi all, what does everyone’s day look like? I feel I’m not doing enough play etc with my LO. I read the sleepy cues but I just don’t know what else to do in the wake windows. (8 weeks old)

Advice

My baby is 17 days old, the last couple of nights we’ve noticed she gets extremely upset when passing wind. Last night was the worst, she was screaming at the top of her lungs and nothing was working until she eventually crashed on my partners chest while he paced up and down. Is this normal? What can I do to help? We’re doing all the usual stuff, bicycle legs, warm bath, burping regularly during feeds. I’m just terrified of colic.

Depression talking 🫩

I don’t like being left alone with my baby all day everyday. I’m tired, my house is a mess, I’m getting less and less help from my partner and I just need a day to sleep by myself in a dark room with no baby constantly touching me and no man asking me stupid questions. Idk how to change this cycle I’m in bc my anxiety is also through the roof and I have convinced myself that my baby is only ever truly safe with me… so I stay with her all day and she sleeps in her bassinet right next to me and I bring her with me when I have to use the bathroom and I never truly get a break.
I’m sad often
I worry always
And I’m exhausted bc my brain won’t shut off.
I wish my body would just let me cry but I can’t so here I am ranting to a bunch of strangers.

I need friends that enjoy going over to each others houses with no real expectations other than hanging out with each other, talking, and hanging out with the kiddos.
