When does it get easier?

I've been really holding onto the fact it gets easier but at 4.5 nearly 5 months I just find my LO harder than ever I feel a lot more tired (not sleeping through) and he just seems to cry even more. I assume teething etc so I do feel bad but so many people said after 3 months it gets so much easier and I'm just not sure I found that

my boy is SO hard at the moment he’s definitely teething, crying 80% of the time and i’ve got a 2 year old who is going through the TERRIBLE twos 😅 im not sure who told you 3 months was the age it got easier 🤣 i feel like id say 8 months onwards probably

It's easier in some ways....as in...the shock of having a new baby had worn off, how to make formula and all that newness and the smiles and personality the babies have is great. But yeah the sleep has gotten worse, he's constantly whinging if you sit still for more than 5 mins with him... exhausting

Ok that makes me feel a little better thank you both at least I know we're in the same boat! X

I would say it’s not that it gets easier but it’s about finding ways to get rest and time to unwind so you don’t burn out, made a huge difference to me. Even small things like I started using headspace and going to the gym once or twice a week. Whatever works for you and of course whatever is doable for your family.
