Postpartum rage and colic

Im in the TRENCHES right now with a screaming baby who only wants to be held/entertained all the time. She refuses to do anything but eat or be constantly entertained with novelty or she screams her head off. My PPR is building and sometimes I have to just put her in the crib and go to another room and let her scream for my own sanity. 😔 when will this end?

Maybe she needs more food than you’re giving her. Have you gone to the doctor for colic?

She’s most likely teething, check her gums and see if they are white, drooling a lot and biting at hands. Her wanting to feed 24-7 is a sign of teething as well

Msgs me if you’d like

I totally understand this feeling. My baby is super fussy right now. I think the above comment about teething could be onto something - maybe give her something cold (and safe) to chew on to help relieve the pain? Could also be learning a new skill and going through some sorr of regression. I feel for you though, it really does eat at your sanity. You're not crazy and your feelings are valid. Good job for placing baby in the other room when you were feeling those intense emotions. You're doing great 🫶🏼 just remember that the fussiness is temporary! There is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Same, same, and same. But also he's teething. So, there's that too.
