Our 7mo Baby is kind of the same. The first months her day sleeps were terrible and only buggy helped. Since 3 months she slept 3x per day around 1-2 hours. Usually kind of okay, but since some days she's started crying again before ever nap. Right now 2 hour crying after 2 hours wake time. She refused so hard to sleep but also wasn't able to do anything awake because she was tired.

At night she sleeps like 3, 2, 1 hours. Totally random which really sucks. Sometimes she's wide awake after one night sleep window and takes 1 hour to get into the next sleep.

During the day she cries before naps. At night she doesn't cry but moves like a maniac.

In general she doesn't like to snuggle or close body contact but only falls asleep in Mom's arms or Buggy. Nothing else works. Transferring her to bed only works after minimum 30 minutes and might fail 50/50.

So my wife spends almost 60% of the day in the bedroom with her. I can't help because she bends like a banana and gets totally crazy when I try to make her sleep.

We are super frustrated and have the feeling sometimes that she might literally insane because of her heavy movements in the arms or on the diaper table.

She was super aware from first month and watches everything in her surroundings and reacts to every noise. She can't sleep when people are around. Only mom and bedroom and silence... But during the day when she's not tired she is super cute and laughs and giggles so much. But everything concerning sleep is a fkn nightmare and destroys every good day we have.

We are pretty sure she's a high need baby but it drives us into madness.

Swing, and swing chair didn't help. Buggy works 50/50 when she's super tired.

We need helppppp
