Hi everyone, just wanted to ask for advice/reassurance/people's experiences. My daughter is 14 weeks old and she can be absolutely delightful. She's very smiley when she's in a good mood, and very sociable and curious. The thing I'm finding hard is that when she's tired she gets very, very grumpy, and sometimes she's tired almost immediately after waking up. I put her down for naps 4 times a day with relative ease, but no matter how long she sleeps she still sometimes wakes up grumpy. She loves new people, music, being talked to and carried around, and is very easily bored. She doesn't like to he put down in her car seat or chair unless she's in a very good mood. She's desperately trying to sit up at the moment and gets frustrated when she can't. I know it's not good to compare but at a party last week my friend's baby sat nicely on her lap whilst my baby babbled and laughed and whinged and everything in between. I know a lot of it must come down to personality, and when she's on form she's wonderful. I just wondered if anyone else's baby was like this and when they felt that their good mood was more sustained?
