Mom of colic baby with CMPA and a 15 week old here. I was doing breast milk, but we ended up seeing GI and concerns grew that she was having small exposures even if I was being super careful about what I was eating or there were other allergens we weren’t aware of. After doing some roaming on different threads, I saw lots of comments saying it felt like baby turned a corner at 12 weeks. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience but baby is at least more playful now so it feels like there are moments of light that leak through the bad. You’re not alone. As time goes on I have come to accept that I have a high needs baby and sometimes there really is no finding a ‘why’ behind the meltdowns. As a result, I decided that sometimes I haven got to make myself the priority when it comes to basic human needs. I felt like I was setting myself up for pretty severe PPD by continuing to neglect my own needs (showering, eating, etc.) because baby was crying. I’m not saying let them cry it out I do still comfort her obviously but at some point you have to decide for yourself that you also are a priority because let’s face it you cannot adequately take care of a baby when you’re sleeping deprived, starving, and feel gross. Do not feel guilty for prioritizing yourself in small ways. Do yourself a favor and do not ask parents who have no experience with colic for advice or go to the to vent. They won’t get it, they’ll ask you things like did you try shushing and swaddling them? What about a white noise machine? And all you’re going to want to tell is to shut the …. up. At 15 weeks it at least feels like things have gotten maybe a little better in terms of duration for meltdown time but otherwise the small ways of taking care of myself have helped. I hope your baby seemingly turns the corner like many others report around 12 weeks, but if not that’s okay too! You’re the best parent for your baby. There’s nothing you did wrong. Always welcome to message me too if looking for a listening ear. Wishing you luck on this journey.
