I love her but hate her. My 5 month old dd is constantly crying whinging and generally never happy. It gets me down so much that I've started to resent her. She's recently been given a cows milk intolerance diagnosis which may explain some of it so we have been put on new milk so maybe that will help but other than that I don't know what to do as I can't stand the crying and whining anymore. Here is what I've tried
- baby wearing
- baby massage
- daily trip outside to a class or walk ( she cries in pram btw)
- cranial osteopathy
- a friend coming round to help
- gaviscon, dentinox and infacol and gripe water
- we have a sleeping routine where she sleeps every 2 hours ( thankfully she does sleep albeit for 30 mins a time)
She just isn't happy. I'm starting to lose my mind. And feel robbed of this time we are supposed to share together. I'm so jealous of other mums that sit in cafes with happy babies. Mine has never been happy. People say hang in there but I've been hanging for 5 months and nothing has improved. Please help! What am I doing wrong?
