Ready to pull my hair out

Cora has been so fussy today. Crying nonstop for 3 hours this morning so I took her out and she calmed down a bit. She's fighting sleep and I am going crazy. I'm about ready to head to Target and buy her a swing.

    Check your local craig's list you can get a great deal on a swing. I would have been lost w/out our swings.

    I don't know how you've made it this long with out one!! They are a great investment.

    I hope she calms down for you really soon. Lydia has had so many days like that. It's awful.

    Love our swing! Its the only way Sara slept the first few nights and now she hangs out in it even when awake but usually it puts her to sleep after a few minutes of play time. Sorry your having a rough few days.

    Our swing was a lifesaver at that age!  I highly recommend getting one.  We borrowed one from a friend, do you know anyone that you could borrow it from to see if she likes it?

    Also, do you live somewhere that you can just be outside?  When Riley would get super fussy, he almost always calmed down as soon as we walked outside.  Even now, when he is fighting sleep, rocking on the front porch almost always calms him.  I don't know what I'm going to do when it gets too cold to sit out there!

    Aww, I'm sorry for the rough day.  If you lived closer, I'd loan you my swing - Nora hates it.  I wish she liked it for those fussy times b/c I hear many babies like it!
