How do i get through this?
First child and i’m definitely not having as much “fun” as people make parenthood seem. i’ve never really been a super patient person and i see it more now than ever before.
It seems like our little guys favorite hobby is inconsolable screaming. I want to help him but never know what to do, so we give him to Mom and he settles right down.
I feel like a failure as a father every time i’ve got to give him up but at the same time i’ll hold him until the point i mentally can’t anymore and set him down. i’ve heard babies can pick up on your feelings and i try to stay as cool and calm as I can, but that only last so long once the screaming starts. he’ll go for what seems like hours..
wife says that this is normal and he’ll grow out of it but how long can i expect this to last? he’s 2 months so know there a lot of some going on
