1 month old inconsolable and it’s taking a toll on our mental health.
We welcomed our second child this past month.
Healthy baby boy, who is active, a shaker and a mover. He eats well, (we do breast feeding and bottle as sometimes he doesn’t latch boob the best) and he eats well.
This is where things fall apart.
At night we are in the basement, darkened and lay him in the bassinet in a love to dream onesie sack. We pre warm his bassinet with a pad (which we remove) and have a sound machine going quietly.
He will pass out before we lay him down and he will sleep from 945ish - 1215ish or 1245.
He will wake and we usually change him and bottle. Than this is where he refuses to go back down.
We give him boob or bottle and he just wakes up moments later in the bassinet. But if we transition him to laying on us and a blanky on top, he will fall asleep.
Sometimes that won’t even work.
Today is rough where he sleeps poorly during the day, fights and refuses sleep and I think it’s starting to affect him and my wife and I’d sanity.
It’s even devolved into me yelling at him a few times which I’m not proud of.
Please, any help is appreciated!
