during the day (from about 6am) he won't sleep anywhere but in my arms and when he's awake cries as soon as i leave the room. i can't even go to the loo or make my lunch. He's very heavy (14lbs 10oz last check) so my back, shoulders and wrists are killing me. he no longer sleeps in his sling; he often can't get off to sleep in afternoons but is trying so will NOT be put down without screams. and although he is clearly tired lately he is staying awake til 10pm, fussing and hitting me (occasionally dh, but ds often screams if dh takes him) - obviously frantic to get to sleep but can't manage. then he's up for bfing 3-4 times in the night, quiet, no fuss, but I am utterly knackered and fed up with being unable to move/do anything all day, only get to use pc one-handed so even this is giving me a neck-crick. don't have any family or child-friendly mates nearby(starting to get out to mums groups but only just) and feel like i am imploding - please no-one tell me he needs this, i really want to respond to his needs but i've tried for 10 weeks and it's getting worse not better. i am desperate for an hour or two to myself each day withou him crying - when does this incessant need ease off? what can i do to help him?
