I am so stressed right now! Christa got up and is being really fussy and will not go back to sleep. Everytime we lay her down she just crys and even when we pick her up she is still cranky! I'm frustrated, Rogers frustrated and I don't know what to do. Nothings working. She doesn't need changed, she will not take her bottle, I checked her temperature and it's fine. I don't know what she wants and she will not stop!

This may not work, but after raising three kids we learned sometimes is to let them cry until they fall asleep. Is she cutting teeth? I don\'t have a definite answer. Just remember that you and Roger are together in this. Look at each other and smile. Give a hug to each other. May help break the tension. This is a learning experience all parents go through. We all learn this way. I\'ll be up all night working, just started the evening shift, so I\'ll keep you two in my thoughts and prayers. Christa too. Good night & God bless, James
Hi young mother, this is dolphin1224, does Christa have colic. One of my nephews had colic as a baby. You do know that the baby can feel when you are frustrated. Have you tried relaxing her in the shower? Maybe rubbing her tummy. My experiences with my children they liked to here the vacuum or a certain song or sound. Try taking her for a ride in the car even if you haft to go in the middle of the night or put your washer on the spin cycle and put her in her carseat on top of the washer why it spins, the motion may help. If she does have colic have a relative come and help. I helped my sister-in-law when my nephew was a baby. Alls you really can do is be there and walk with him. That is what I did with him. If I think of anything else I will write back. Good Luck and I will pray for you.
