Adam cries... a lot. I am not sure what is normal for a baby..this is my first. It isn't hours of screaming on end but he cries a lot throughout the day. We have been dealing with reflux so that doesn't help. Do they eventually begin to cry less? If so...when?
Re: will this let up?
Hmmmmmm. DD peaked at 6 weeks but it DEFINITELY has not reduced much and she's much further along than that. It might depend on if the baby is colicky or not???
Kate cried for 4.5 months. Everyone told me "weeks 6-8 are the worst." Then it was "it gets soooo much better at 3 months". Well, these milestones came and went and nothing. 4.5 months it was.
It gets better. I just told myself (and still do when she's in a phase I don't love) that every stage passes.
Hang in there mama!
I just read it somewhere, never said it was true.
My pedi said the same thing about crying a lot at 6 weeks
DD cried a lot, especially in the evenings. She started calming down around 8 weeks, but still has a couple of breakdowns a day. Try Happiest Baby on the Block....the 5 S's really work.
