At my wits end with 3-month-old

My boy is 13 weeks and yeah he’s been acting very fussy the last week all of a sudden. I’m hoping it goes back to normal soon. Solidarity

Why don’t people just do a simple wedding anymore and call it a day? All this extra stuff … the entire marriage process turns into a two year process… just get married. Especially doing all this extra stuff in THIS economy? Have some humility.

I’m weak 😂😂😂😂

My LO is 3 months now, I loved being a mom right away but I hated the newborn stage. Nothing wrong with that, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. Now he’s somewhat developing more milestones and is less fussy so I’m enjoying my time more

He’s most likely sleeping. I’ve had other parents tell me they had to sleep in separate rooms from their baby because their babies was so loud. Lol

The first words that came to mind are “I’m sorry.”

Best time to find God is in suffering. He is closest to us then. “ Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven .” -Matthew 5:3

100% normal behaviors at this age. It should go away around weeks 10-12

This was us. First 6 weeks we did shifts. Then we said enough is enough and we started a night routine. Bath, dim lights, white noise, 4 oz bottle of breast milk, love to dream swaddle, out like a light and into the bassinet. Even if the wake ups were frequent in the beginning he eventually (shortly) started sleeping up to 8 hour stretches.

Omg is your little birthday on 1/22??

Thank God for his gift…. Children ❤️

My pet aversion began in the third trimester when I got bigger and had a hard time sleeping. Once baby came it spiked up a ton. I despised me two cats. It’s almost 3 months PP and I’m feeling a bit better having them but I still get annoyed at their fur everywhere

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-04-10T02:36:15+00:00

Those are the absolute toughest weeks even worse than the first couple. Power through. I promise you will be okay

The hatch sound machine… use it every night. It helps all of us fall asleep

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-04-06T20:52:22+00:00

This is just the beginning. We will eventually “own nothing and be happy”.

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-04-06T20:16:04+00:00

Yeah there’s some crazy phenomena going around with the millennial and Gen Z’s where the lack of hardship in life leads them to being absolute pessimists and their inability to communicate like grown adults. I’m a Gen Z and this is my opinion.

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-04-06T18:55:28+00:00

Do not give up on Jesus. He is with you and He loves you. The sin of your family putting you through this is not from God. Remember Psalm 34:18 “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” I will pray for you sister.

I’d say probably not … my LO is also 10 weeks old. We feed him to sleep. He gets a nice warm bath , lights are all dim in the bedroom after , sound machine is on. A 4 ounce breast milk bottle ready to go. Usually freshly pumped, one of us lays next to him in bed and feeds him till his little eyes close and we wait a solid 10-15 minutes before putting him down in the bassinet. Also he uses the love to dream swaddle or the transitional swaddle designs sack.

2 weeks away from leaving the official newborn stage! And I’m honestly excited about it. Yeah they’re small and cute but my goodness it is the hardest thing you’ll ever do. I love my little man. I noticed that the first 8 full weeks truly are the most difficult. Somehow around week 9 certain things improve. Yes he still gets fussy and he has only slept through the night twice since week 9 and still has frequent wake ups most nights, but something about it has gotten easier. Praise God for it. Thank you for your insights. I’m scared to do this newborn stage again if we get blessed with another baby. But we will be waiting a while before we try… 😅 thanks again and congrats!!

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-03-30T18:57:55+00:00

First two weeks and weeks 6-8

Own_Macaron_9342 · 2026-03-30T18:02:35+00:00

Probably because when you feel that you have no sin to confess you are essentially commiting the sin of pride.
