2 week old not settling

Just as it says above, she seems to be so restless. After she's fed she sometimes still cry's and I need to walk about with her to settle. My first was never like this ( I know 2 babies are never the same)

I'm so tired though and I've cried for like the 3rd time today. I've tried swaddling, rocking seats, making sure she doesn't have wind etc.

Wat else?

Are you breastfeeding? Mine just needed to be on me and on the boob as much as possible in the fourth trimester. Do you baby wear?

No I'm bottle feeding. I had put her teats up to size 2 coz I felt she was taking ages to eat but I've put them back down to 1 as she was being sick. She seems more calmer today but I don't want to tempt fate. Maybe she's had a bug or something?

You just got lucky with your first two. This is normal and many people's only experiences of newborns.

Sorry but I think this is quite normal and you were just really lucky the first time.
Have you tried playing music?
Can’t remember the guidance on how early you should give a dummy but it really helped my DS settle.

She's a lot more settled today, long May it continue!
