Baby fussiness 9 weeks

2 replies

I’m not sure of the purpose of this post other than for some suggestions or support! My second baby was born in October and compared to my first baby (July 2020) she felt like a dream! She’s now 9 weeks and I don’t know what’s happened! She seems super uncomfortable whenever she is awake. She isn’t sicky at all but I can hear her milk come up and she swallow it. She also has hiccups a lot and just squirms and moves a lot. Hates being on her back like on her play mat.

i mentioned to the GP at her checks and she said we could try some gaviscon but she’ll probably just grow out of whatever it is. My first baby had bad reflux(very sicky) and ended up on omeprazole.

she had her jabs on Monday and has been so fussy the last 2-3 days. Crying all the time due to seeming uncomfortable. Will only nap when I’m pounding the pavements in her buggy.
today she passed a really green poo (she’s Exclusively BF).

The odd thing is, she doesn’t seem to have any discomfort at night time and sleeps good chunks, sometimes up to 7 Hours! She’s content in the mornings until about 10am and then the crying, fussing, wriggling begins.

makes me sad to see her this way and I’m exhausted of holding her stood up all day whilst also trying to cook, play with my 4 year old, school run etc.

any ideas!?

The sleeping well is a bit odd as you'd think of it was Tongue Tie or CMPA she'd be more unsettled at night?

I don't know if this article from Kellymom is of any use?

Are you getting any RL support too?

My DC had this, I remember 6-12 weeks being particularly challenging. My DC had a tongue tie and suspected silent reflux, but was a lot happier from 16 weeks onwards. Mine was also a brilliant sleeper, and continues to be now. Hopefully yours will be the same!
