Nights are so traumatic for the both of us. She starts crying every evening into early hours of the morning. There is nothing that seems to make her feel better.

I’ve tried feeding her, she sometimes seems like she’s settling but then again the shrieking starts up. I’ve tried burping her, I’ve tried bathing her, I’ve tried the gas drops and just started biogaia 5 days ago. What else can I do to make her feel better or do I just need to wait this out?

She calls her by everything but her actual name or nickname which is a part of her name.

We gave my child an “English” name according to her (it’s actually Latin) and she can’t understand why we did that so she just won’t call her by it.

We live in the US as I was born and raised mostly there myself. I’ve seen what some of my classmates had to go through in terms of their names being mispronounced ALL the time. My husband has a name that not many people can pronounce!

Baby has a name everyone can’t butcher and I’m happy with that.

We were on video chat today and I told her for the umpteenth time that the baby is finally starting to recognize her own name and that she will NOT respond to her if she does not call her by her name. Baby actually does not respond to MIL at all on phone/video but responds to my siblings, husband, mom, even my Dog lol

WTF is wrong with these MIL’s?

My infant is screaming in anger and I’ve left her in the living room with the nanny so she can try and put her to sleep as I only slept 3.5 hours last night and have a major medical licensing exam that I’m preparing for which needs me to be focused 6-8 or more hours a day for the next few weeks.

I know I need to sleep so I can be ok but I definitely feel like a terrible mom while laying here.

She screams when we put her down and it almost sounds like she’s crying to get us to pick her up but it’s not the same as when she’s crying. Does that even make any sense? Am I imagining this?

Looking for the “safest” material wise and of course coverage for big poops. Thanks

Does it typically take a while to get the hang of it? Is there anything else you guys recommend I try in terms of wraps?

Baby is 2 months old. Colicky and I think wearing her close will help especially at night. I’m specifically looking for something I can also sit down in with her.

Pls help. Edited to add: ring wrap

My 2 month old is perpetually wide awake starting at 9 pm. I’m exhausted. I’ve been giving her gas drops. Warm sponges, hing on belly button (mom’s insistence). Any other ideas?

Also, how much should I expect to pay for 12 hours a day?

I had my baby away from home and won’t be going back for a couple of months. Up till now, our dog was the only baby, albeit fur baby in our home and got all the attention in the world.

He’s never loved kids too much and he’s very possessive about me (guard dog). Im worried about how to introduce my baby to him.

FYI - After the initial introduction, I obviously will never leave them alone together in a room. My real concern is how to do I make the introduction in the least traumatic way for all of us?
