AIBU to think that a 3 month old/ older baby/ toddler is harder than having a newborn?
The sleep deprivation was bad but generally looking after ds was easier. Now he’s 3 months and cries all the time- angry cries. When he was younger he had colic and silent reflux so I’m used to a lot of crying but generally ‘pain’ crying around feeds. I was hanging on to the fact that this is ‘supposed’ to go away around 3 months. Now he is lovely to look after in many ways because he’s more interactive but he’s also very strong and has a temper! I think he might be over tired as he won’t sleep much between 11:30am-8pm (maybe twice for around 20 minutes at the most- sleeps through until 4am).
In short, I’ve got more sleep at night but have a baby that cries more (screams), needs more stimulating entertainment and is bloody heavy but can’t cling on to me. AIBU to think this is getting harder not easier?
