I am new to both mums net and forums but have been prompted to post as I am reaching a point where I am struggling to cope with my 1 week old.
She sleeps fine during the day but at night will not settle. She repeatedly ask for food so I breast feed constantly swapping from one side to the other and nothing else will comfort her. She falls asleep on my breast but the second I try to put her down in the Moses basket she wakes and starts screaming again. She has only slept for two hours last night and I don't see how this's can be normal as I thought newborns were supposed to spend most of their time asleep!
My husband and I are both so stressed and I'm do tired I'm worried I'll fall asleep with her when in the chair or bed and will end up dropping her.
Please help if anyone had any advice
