Can’t cope anymore

I don’t know why I had a baby. It’s awful. I fed her three hours ago, did all the things they say like pausing for winding and not over feeding and staying upright for one hour after and none of it matters, she’s still bringing it up and choking. Gaviscon did nothing except constipate her, omeprazole does nothing, she’s not allergic to dairy, I’ve changed formula three times and that did nothing. Health visitor says feed her every two hours instead of every 3/4, well that’s bollocks as she is still vomiting, screeching, grunting and choking now three hours on, so how the hell can I feed her even more frequently. I can’t put her to bed despite the cot being so fucking tilted it’s almost vertical so I guess I will have to stay up all night every night until she potentially grows out of it. Everyone will say cosleep - I don’t want to, it’s dangerous and I won’t sleep properly for worrying I’ll squash her. I just want to run away, I’ve ruined my life. It’s a good thing she has a good dad so she has one decent parent. This isn’t PND it’s just the realisation that I’ve fucked my life up and there’s no going back now.

I had to message too! I haven’t read other posters, only yours but I had a baby like this. It was awful! My DH couldn’t cope and I walked 10-20km per day. He’s 4 now and I am really happy. I love him with all my heart. It was a struggle but I took it all day by day. He had nutamigen and I had to ignore the ingredients. Still dairy free now after trying the milk ladder multiple times but we get by and he doesn’t mind too much. Hope this phase passes really quickly for you!
