intro and question

Hi! I used to read and post a little on PGAL, and the past couple of weeks I've been lurking on here.
My husband and I have a 3yo boy, and we just had our daughter Maria on Aug 21. We live near St. Louis.
My daughter is 7 weeks now, but sleeping seems to be worse this week, not better. I have had 3 bad nights in a row with her. Last night she was only sleeping in 1 hour stretches. I EBF, swaddle, play white noise. She doesn't seem to want to sleep in her crib. I got desperate at one point and brought her in bed with me and she slept 3.5 hours. I put her down asleep in her crib and she wakes up. I am so exhausted and I don't know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

Re: intro and question

  • I'm a FTM and am pretty much in the same boat, so I have no advice, but I do hope it gets better!!  Does she nap during the day at least? Or is she gassy?  Or in the middle of the night is she just plain awake?

    I'm sorry no sleep for you - fingers crossed she starts sleeping!
