For the last week or so, I've had a rather unhappy baby. I've tried EVERYTHING I can think of. He's not happy in his rocker, he's not happy on the play mat, he's not happy in his exer-saucer, on my knee, in his swing, in his crib. Before this, he was content to sit in his rocker while we talked, read books, watched some tv w/ me. Or on his play mat for a little while. We just got him the exer-saucer and he seemed to like that for a while. I was able to get laundry done, meals cooked, other things accomplished.
Yesterday was so bad and he screamed so hard, that he broke out in a sweat and barfed all over himself. He's perfectly fine. No fever, normal poops, eats like a horse. I just have no idea what happened to my boy. What I do know is that I am stressed out from having him so upset all day long. He's always been kind of a spazz baby, always has his legs going, going, going.
He's also not sleeping as well as he had been. If I leave him with my husband or mom, he freaks out and screams. Is anyone else going through anything like this?

No, he's was not happy any where. I guess what I wrote could be a bit confusing. He seems a bit better today. It's almost like last night was the climax. He's happy and playing today.
We're in the same boat this week. I'm about ready to scream, to be honest.
My mom told me it's just the age - she swears 3 months - 5 months was the hardest phase. The idea of this going on for another month and half terrifies me.
