Long story short, my DS is 9 weeks old. He had surgery at a few weeks and he was in hospital for 3 weeks afterwards.
Since coming home from hospital, he cries constantly. He never stops. Nothing can calm him, I've tried everything; sling, rocking, dummy, feeding, changing, wind, taking him for walks etc. He never settles. The most he sleeps during the day is for about 2 hours. At night he is a little better and goes 3 hour stretches. I also have a 13 month old to look after.
I really feel like it's getting em down now, the continuous crying hour after hour, day after day with no consoling him at all. Sometimes I have to walk out of the room with my one year old for a few minutes because it all gets too much. When my older DS is napping and he's crying I sit in the bathroom crying myself because I'm at a loss what to do. The longest he's cries for is between 3-5 hour stretches at a time. Naps for 15 minutes and starts again.
I have told the hospital what he is like and they've said everything physically seems fine and don't seem concerned.
Anyway, I'm just exhausted now to be honest. I dread every single day & I really don't feel as though I can bond with DS2 as he just screams constantly. I guess I just needed to vent and let this out of my system. No body else knows the extent of how I'm feeling.
