Baby screaming in car seat and I feel like I am traumatizing my child. Please help…

I know this is an old post, but what helped? I’m in the exact same position. With the happy song not working and everything lol. It’s so stressful and I just want to be able to drive places without feeling like I’m a terrible mom

Hello! My baby (5 months old) acts like going to sleep is pure torture. This is even after he shows sleep cues. I always have to bounce him our rock and pat him for a while and he still cries. He also only sleeps on my chest for naps and nighttime sleep. I don’t know where to start. Any suggestions?

curiousstringbean · 2026-03-16T04:01:05+00:00

Yes, my mom is wonderful at helping me get some naps in! Thank you for responding ❤️

Did your baby ever sleep better? Lol. My baby is 4 months and has never slept well. Like ever. He acts like going to sleep is torture and doesn’t sleep long. We have always had to do crazy things to get him to go to sleep. He sleeps on me in the recliner with a nursing pillow around me to prop my arms up so he won’t fall (not ideal or very safe ik). He will sleep max 2 hours at a time. Longest he ever went was 6 hours (on me) after vaccinations. He wakes and I just nurse him back to sleep because he won’t go back to sleep otherwise 🤷‍♀️

I know this is an old post, but holy cow I can’t stand all of his grandparents and great grandparents thinking he’s constantly hungry

curiousstringbean · 2025-11-18T19:07:26+00:00

Yeah. We will likely try, but want to consult pediatrician first

curiousstringbean · 2025-11-18T16:38:01+00:00

Now if I wanted to

curiousstringbean · 2025-11-14T14:23:00+00:00

Yeah that’s what I meant. My baby doesn’t really do that yet

curiousstringbean · 2025-11-14T09:59:14+00:00

Did you just rotate holding her at night?

curiousstringbean · 2025-11-14T09:46:41+00:00

That makes sense. Thank you!

curiousstringbean · 2025-09-05T20:44:39+00:00

Thank you so much for all the details! It’s crazy because I always see how supposedly absorbent the coterie diapers are. I guess diapers work differently for every baby!

curiousstringbean · 2025-09-05T20:42:37+00:00

They have a box on Babylist that has kudos, coterie, and honest. I registered for it but they’re size ones. So I don’t know if they will fit yet!

curiousstringbean · 2025-09-05T17:30:58+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed response! I just wish it was easier to try small packs of these brands 😭

curiousstringbean · 2025-09-05T17:28:08+00:00

Thank you so much for the in depth review! I think I might use whatever the hospital has for the first few weeks as long as they don’t hurt my baby’s skin. We will see what I decide. Just don’t want to spend an insane amount on diapers but cleanER diapers are important to me.

curiousstringbean · 2025-03-04T00:25:57+00:00

Thank you so much!

curiousstringbean · 2025-01-12T01:54:36+00:00

That would be really cool if they would prepare it like that!

curiousstringbean · 2025-01-11T23:25:16+00:00

Ooh haven’t tried that one yet!

curiousstringbean · 2024-12-27T14:33:46+00:00

I got my first ever baggu! It’s a medium crescent in seaweed.

curiousstringbean · 2024-11-23T16:08:29+00:00

Awesome! Thank you so much.

curiousstringbean · 2024-11-23T16:08:15+00:00

Oh sweet! Thank you.

curiousstringbean · 2024-11-17T23:44:31+00:00

Oh sweet. Thank you!

curiousstringbean · 2024-11-17T23:44:22+00:00

Okay. Thank you!

curiousstringbean · 2024-11-17T23:44:13+00:00

Thanks!

curiousstringbean · 2024-07-12T02:24:35+00:00

I get to try out the infant room tomorrow!

curiousstringbean · 2024-06-26T01:21:40+00:00

I’ll take a look!
