Same situation man, same frustrations

@molitor My baby is turning 5 months today and has been so smiley and happy ! Still has some grumpy moments but giving me so much joy !

 

[molitor]

@thomasgreentiller Was your baby fussy at 4 months?

 

[thomasgreentiller]

@molitor Yes he was! He gets really grumpy when learning something new, i think he gets frustrated!
But also you get better at tolerating fussiness and resolving it!

@molitor When they don’t stay babies anymore. Then you think that the baby stage was super easy

 

[molitor]

@kenjisan70 So it only gets harder?

@molitor 6 months and my baby is still fussy as ever. She’ll go 0-100 in a second. Hard to please and have to constantly change things. Maybe 8 months will get better. I’d say it’s definitely more manageable but unfortunately not better for us.

@nitto_k Bad news he’s now 8 months and still fussy 7 months everything got wayyyy easier and suddenly right now he’s as fussy as ever

 

[nitto_k]

@molitor Solidarity. I know I shouldn’t compare to other people’s babies but it’s so hard. She can’t sit and play with toys for more than 10 minutes at a time

@nitto_k He goes through phases. At 7 months he could entertain himself for 30 min and I was so happy. Now, he’s in a fussy phase, literally won’t last 30 seconds and will cry unless I’m holding him it’s so hard

@molitor Yep pretty much same with ours. Constantly needs to be held. The worst part is she hates being worn so we physically have to hold her almost all the time. Thankfully she’s on the smaller side but it’s still physically taxing on us
