Newborn son slept well for first couple of days but now he cries all the time from gas pain. He doesn't sleep for more than about an hour at a time which I means I don't sleep for more than about 40 mins by the time I've bfed him, burped him
and settled him to sleep. Our first son was exactly the same so I know how hard this is going to be: am currently sitting here crying in time with my baby, despairing at another four months of no sleep, exhaustion, feeling like the worlds most useless mum and frayed nerves - plus a toddler on top. I know I will get through it because I have before but at the moment it feels insurmountable.
Sorry that this is just an emotional wallow and not actually asking for any advice, sometimes I think you just need to put things out into the world to make them seem a bit more manageable.
