“Why is my baby crying?!” 😩
If you’ve ever found yourself asking this at 2am while holding your newborn, you are definitely not alone. 🤍
Newborn crying can be one of the hardest parts of those early weeks — especially when you’ve fed them, changed them, burped them and cuddled them… and they’re STILL crying.
And when you’re exhausted, recovering from birth and trying to figure out this whole motherhood thing, it can be so easy to wonder:
Am I doing something wrong?
Does my baby need something I’m missing?
Why can’t I settle them?
The truth is, babies cry for lots of different reasons, and learning to understand their cues can take time.
I’ve written a new blog to help you understand why newborns cry, what you can try to settle your baby, when you should seek help, and what to do when the crying feels like too much (which is ok to admit!).
If you're a new or expectant mum in Wicklow or Dublin and you're feeling overwhelmed by those early days, you don't have to figure it all out alone.
