I feel like I have no time for myself.
Baby is 4months. I've got him into a nap routine but he'll only nap on me. Soon as I transfer him to cot he wakes and cries hysterically.
When awake he wants to be carried all the time (doesn't have to be me, he'll happily let strangers hold him). If I put him in cot/bouncer/Bumbo with toys he lasts approx 5-10mins before screaming sometimes won't tolerate it at all
I'm so envious of my NCT group. Their babies are happy sitting in bouncers, Bumbos etc whereas mine wants constant cuddles and attention.
DH takes him for a couple of hours in eve so I can shower and catch up on housework. I put him in sling a lot but he's heavy now.
How do you cope? Is it normal for a 4-month-old to be like this? I feel like I'm getting depressed.
