Very normal I'm afraid! I dunno why noone tells people this til after we have babies! I expected rather naively thought that babies only cry if they are in pain, hungry or tired.
I imagined that I'd be able to sit ds in a bouncy chair or lay him in his moses basket and he'd happily fall asleep. WRONG!!!!!
I was shell shocked! No one ever ever says how babies really are. I suppose if they did then the human race would die out.
I also found the newborn bit awful. I hated every minute of it. DS cried loads, couldn't put him down. I was on edge all the time, it was hideous!
I assumed that my baby would be like the ones in the mothercare catalogues, happily looking around, laying on a mat. It wasn't like that at all!
It is so hard and you have my sympathy. Remember that she is very very very young and all she has is you for comfort and entertainment.
She can barely focus, everything's new, nothing makes sense to her. bIt's natural she is wanting her mummy.
It will get better when she can entertain herself a bit. Soon she'll hopefully be sleeping for longer periods.
A few weeks and she'll be smiling, a couple of months and she'll be able to use her hands and hold toys.
The more secure you make her feel now, the less clingy she'll be in the future. It nearly drove me nuts though!
