  • There is. What area do you live in? I can get you phone numbers.
  • 1. Always put things in perspective. If the baby’s whining, then it means she’s not feeling okay about something. Imagine what it’s like when you feel something wrong and you can’t get your message across, won’t you be fussy too? Babies will cry until they learn how to speak and you can’t expect them to keep quiet just because you want them to. 2. Close your eyes, take deep breaths and keep calm. I notice that my baby is very perceptive. Even if I don’t say anything, she reacts to how I feel at the moment. When I get tense, she tenses up too. But when I radiate a sense of loving calm, she calms down too. Another technique I use to calm myself down: I hum a relaxing tune I heard from a meditation CD and use it as Wednesday’s lullaby. After a few repetitions, Wednesday picks up on the relaxing vibe and falls asleep. 3. Visualize your happy baby. I always keep a mental photograph of Wednesday’s smile. On her fussy days, it reminds me that she is actually a happy baby who happens to have mood swings (doesn’t everybody have it?) Oftentimes, she returns to her happy baby state when I give her space to be her moody self. 4. If all else fails, hand the baby over. We are human after all, and there will really be times when we’ll lose our patience. But just when you sense it happening, hand the baby over to your husband, your caregiver or other people in the family who can offer loving arms while you collect yourself. It helps to relieve yourself of the fussy situation for a little while and pull yourself together. Walk around the house, punch a pillow, drink some water, eat chocolate, do something to release that negative emotion. Before you take back your baby, make sure you’re feeling better. Chances are the baby will grow tired ahead of you and fall asleep soon enough. This night too shall pass Oftentimes, when we are having a rough night, I always remind myself that I only need to stretch my patience a little longer and exert effort a little harder. It won’t be long when the night will finally pass. It always does. When my baby is peacefully sleeping next to me, I kiss her on the forehead and whisper, “I love you so much.” Then I close my eyes smiling, looking forward to wake up to a bright and sunshiney day.
  • yes. you need to see your doctor and tell him/her what your feeling. you could be have post partum "something".there are so many hormonal disorders that a mother can have after having a baby. so you should see someone befor something happens.you can never be to careful.
  • yeah its called anger management. If you didn't want to hear a baby crying you shouldn't have had one. Just keep in mind if you do hurt it you have to live with probably every single person you know including yourself hating you for what you have done, and that you have taken the most precious gift God has bestowed to you.
  • Yes, there is help! Call the doctor. They can help determine first of all if there's something wrong with the baby. Secondly they can help you find someone to help counsel you about your anxiety over the baby crying. Also you need to know that it's okay for the baby to cry you don't have to stress over it. And it's a good idea to get help taking care of your baby so that you can take a break every now then there's nothing wrong with that in fact it's needed. Where's the daddy? Maybe it's his turn for a while.
