| mmmmm maybe he's got a bad tummy something's obviously bothering him if he's so unsettled. maybe try a bit of cool boiled water. if you're stressed, he's probably picking up your vibes as well. maybe he has trapped wind or constipated. maybe play some soothing music, that used to help Cerys. sending you hugs, i know it feels like hell but it will pass xx |

| awwww hun you're not a bad mum, its bloody awful when you're ill and looking after a baby. just been through it myself it feels like the day is never gonna end. we all get times like this and its normal to feel like throwing them out the window, these little buggers are sent to try us if you feel like you're gonna explode just put him somewhere safe and walk away for 10 mins, no baby ever came to harm from just crying xx |

| nope hes at the end of the sofa screaming his head off ! i know whats wrong with him hes over tired but hejust wont go to sleep, and the reason why hes being sick is because he drinks far too much milk!! hes so greedy for milk and i know he'll want another bottle to go to sleep with but ipersonally think 2 9oz bottles in 2 hrs is enough!! ive tried cooled water but he just pulls a funny face and starts screaming again!! i have ran out of ideas and i dont know what to do!! |

| Could you try having a bath / shower with him? Requires a nice warm bathroom and everything ready beforehand - and although a faff afterwards it's nice while it lasts! I used to give bean a quick rub dry then fastened him all bundled up in towels in his carseat (loosened straps to allow for towels ) while I got dried myself, then had nappy, clothes for him and clothes, undies for me etc. all ready pus some music on throughout. Only thing is you're a bit knacked and they're a bit lively after Chance would be a fine thing now - I'm getting slower as he's getting faster x |

| Oh nuts. Poor grumpy bum. Maybe a cold teether / wet flannel to chew on? Or teething gel or powders if you think he's grizzly and teething... could always be tummy upset though - if he's not a fan of baths I'm guessing some baby massage might not be his thing either x |

| If you want to wean him then do it hun, you know your own baby better than anyone else does. My nephew is the same age and has just started having baby rice in the mornings because he would want a bottle all the time lol xx |

| awww i think it helps a bit to remember that a) as far as i know EVERYONE feels like throwing their baby out of the window at some point b) he can't really help it (although sometimes it can feel like its deliberate haha) and c) it really really wont go on forever, even if it seems it will |
