Defeated- 10w old help

My 10 week old only has two moods- smiles or screams. Unfortunately the latter is the one we find ourselves mostly in. I have tried everything and nothing is working. He is just so miserable and so are we.

Additionally, he only sleeps on me and hates sleeping in his bed or even our bed. When he sleeps he sounds like he has a lot of mucus in his nose and throat. We clean the nose but usually nothing comes out and it seems that the mucus is mainly in his throat. Doctor thinks it’s silent reflux, so we are on omeprazole which made zero difference. He is formula fed and we just went on rice formula to see if it will make a difference- so far no improvement.

Nothing is working. It’s our first baby and we live in a different country to family and friends. I am with the baby all day trying to guess why he is screaming and it has been slowly destroying me. I am so defeated and feel guilty that I can’t figure out how help my baby.

Has anyone had a baby sound very congested in the throat? Anyone has a very grumpy and miserable baby?
