DS is 15 weeks and I constantly feel like I'm doing it all wrong. He isn't an easy baby and cries a lot. He wakes every 2 hours all night and is always cranky in the day time.
He wakes up in a morning and is lovely and pleasant. He will play for 90 mins then I put him down for a nap. Will go down easily and have half an hour. He wakes reasonably happy, again plays for 90 mins then has a 2 hour nap. However the afternoons can be awful. Once he wakes from this nap he is cranky and needs constant jigging about to stop him crying. He has another half hour nap around 4 ish and again wakes from this really cranky and cries until bathtime at 6:30. He goes to bed at 7pm usually without a problem.
I think he is tired but I don't understand why as he is having plenty of naps.
He woke up at 5pm and is screaming now. Nothing will console him. He hates being cuddled, doesn't want to feed and won't fall asleep. He does this most evenings and the only way to stop the crying is to walk round the house with him jigging him.
I'm obviously getting something wrong as he just doesn't seem to be a happy baby at all but I can't figure out what!
