[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SAHM of 3 here- get to the gym in the am and shower there if you can. Leave baby with childcare person. Errands in pm. Need more info on how he is difficult to help more. [/quote]

Nothing seems to make him happy. He spends a large part of the day crying. He cries because he's hungry (fair enough), tired (okay), when he goes in his high chair, when he goes in the stroller, when he sits on the floor, when he plays with his toys. You get the picture, he cries a lot. I have no idea if it's a development thing, if he's teething, if he's frustrated, if his cold is making him more miserable than usual. It's wierd because if we go anywhere he is all smiles and everyone comments how smiley and happy he is. Our apartment is also really small and I think it makes things harder. DH thinks this is all in my head. I have less room to walk around holding him. He's always happy if I hold him but in a small space it feels so cramped!

I try to make sure we go out and about so he's not "bored" in the house, I sit on the floor and play but sometimes I need to you know, go to the bathroom, make food and this is when he ramps up the noise. It's really getting to me now, the constant noise, the fact that I can't seem to make my little boy happy.

I have tried repeating the "this phase shall pass" mantra but will it? And how the hell will I manage until then? Is this normal? It's sounds ridiculous, people have far worse things to deal with but it's really getting me down and each day feels like a chore.[/quote]
