One of those days...

Jackson is just completely inconsolible today!  I have tried everything, but he is just whaling!  He will stop for 5 seconds when I show him something new or change the activity(ie, sit up, start walking him, show him toys...)  but then it's as if nothing interests him and he starts in again!  I feel so at a loss for words, I just don't know what to do!  It's not a fever, I just feel like he is just bored beyond belief with me :-(  Like he can't stand seeing my face day in and day out, anyone else feel this way?  Please send some "take a nap Jackson" or "happy baby" dust!  Something has to work, b/c I am fresh outta ideas!

Re: One of those days...

  • Oh Crissy! I'm sure it's not that he can't stand to see your face! Sometimes they are just babies... :(
  • Oh I swear to God Austin cannot stand my face on a daily basis...I sit him in the corner of the couch, he cries, I hold him, he fusses....put him in the swing he cries....I try playing with a toy with him, he cries....take him out of the bath - cries....

    He just "napped" for about 20 minutes, and is up in his crib crying now, because I know he is tired....

    I hope your day gets better!!! 

    Oh at the moms group I used to go to, the woman who runs the group, says "when all else fails, open the fridge door and let them look inside" :) Give that a try.... 

  • Oh Crissy, those days are so frustrating!  Can you guys take a walk?  A trip to Target or the mall?  Maybe just getting out of the house & having a change of scenery will help both of you.  I know it has always done wonders for Owen, even on his fussiest days.

    Hope this afternoon is better!

  • Maybe he is just bored??  Take him outside for a walk, or to the mall for a change of scenery.  GL!!!  Those days are so tough!
  • oh crissy!  could he be teething?  is he any better today? 

     

    happy baby dust ~
