Is anyone else's 5 month old extremely fussy at the moment?

Hi,

Is anyone else's 5 month old extremely fussy at the moment? My LO is extremely fussy right now and feel like pulling my hair out trying to figure out what's wrong?!

Dealing with this atm! How has it played out for your LO?

@Cali8 this was my old thread. I think it was some sort of regression to be honest because she still has 'episodes' of being like this but usually it's before something happens (teeth cutting through or beginning to crawl or learning how to roll etc).

How's baby now? X

@user666555 I think it’s exactly the same for us! We had about a month where, if I’m honest I was really starting to despair and worry that she was just a miserable baby. But within a space of about two weeks, she’s learned to roll, sit up, is shrieking and blowing raspberries and is much much cheerier! I wonder if her brain was just working overtime 😂 don’t get me wrong, we still have the odd day where she’s in a right strop, but fingers crossed it was just a phase! :)

@Cali8 great to hear that things have improved for you! I definitely agree, I think whenever their brains work on 'overdrive' before they learn a new skill, they become moody and fussy.

As baby gets older and is able to express themselves more it feels so much more worth it because they can interact more with you and those moments keep you going through the darker days

Always here if you need a chat :) x
