My 4 week old has been impossible to put down recently. I’ll change, feed (formula) and burp him, hold him upright for 30 mins to help the milk go down and get him to sleep, then put him in his cot. Within minutes of me putting him down he will wake up and start crying and screaming. I’ll then give him a cuddle and if that doesn’t work, more milk. He’s having LOADS as he’s being fed practically every two hours!
I’ve tried taking him out in the sling and the pram but nothing works - he will settle in both but as soon as we get home and the pram stops moving or I take him out the sling, he will start crying and the whole cycle begins again. I’m exhausted quite frankly.
He’s pooing every day or every other day and has regular wet nappies, so no concerns there.
Do you think there’s something wrong?
