3 month old won't let me put her down, when she does she crys

Hello,
I need some advice and tips.. My DD is 3 months old, she will not let me put her down, she's fine the whole time I'm holding her, or if she's sleeping on my chest. The minute I put her down she has an almighty breakdown. She will be asleep on me and as soon as I move her she will wake up, and start crying so much, then make out she's hungry. I put her on my boob and she falls asleep within seconds. Or she spends the whole time suckling her hand, I go to feed her and she falls straight to sleep. What can i do? I can't get anything done, having her and a DS that is 3 Yr old it is defiantly hard work. Please help!

God I remember this and it was so tough! Co sleeping and lying down to feed was a life saver for sleep. Could you go to a local sling library and find a sling that you could feed in too so that you can move around and still have baby on the boob.

Also google fourth trimester as this is all totally normal but it's still really hard! Trust me it does get easier and it's all worth it in th easier endThanks

All my three month olds were like this. She’ll grow.

Mine were all like this. I just wore them in a wrap sling for the first four/five months of their lives and for on with it

The fourth trimester doesn't last forever, as hard as it is at the time. Just wear a sling and accept it.

@Upups
Thank you so much for your reply. I Co sleep with her, as she literally will not go in her moses basket. I hope its not to much longer until she snaps out of it! Grin
