Can I start by saying that I know babies cry. That’s a given. My son (first baby) is now neerly 10 months old and by god, he’s so sensitive. I’m saying this as a comparison to every baby I have ever met. Some examples of said crying:
⁃ when he wakes up, instant crying
⁃ When hungry, sometimes even whilst feeding
⁃ When he’s on my lap (grizzly) and when I put him on the floor (screaming)
⁃ A new you may would easily make him cry
⁃ When strangers (or not even strangers, just people he’s met less that 20 times) say ‘hello harry’ to him
⁃ Putting him in the car or pram or anywhere
⁃ Some items on TV
⁃ Putting cream on his face
⁃ Taking calpol from a syringe
⁃ Most foods make him cry, apart from Apples (puréed)
He does like it when I sing. (I can’t sing). That’s it really. He is SO sensitive and it’s making life really hard. Mentally, socially, physically. The lot.
Maybe I’m over reacting but any help suggestions or advice? I'm just sick of asking myself this question... what am I doing wrong or is there something wrong?
Thanks all xx
