Squeaky, your plight sounds so familiar... she is only 2 weeks old; not so long since she was in that warm, safe, secure environment in the womb, and she probably misses it. Give her the cuddles when you can. She'll thrive on it.



Hi Squeaky! I agree with dudette on this one. At 2 weeks old, she feels insecure being away from that warmth & comfort of mom. Perhaps you could invest in a sling that she can lie in while you & your wife go about your normal business? I'm a strong believer in the "kangaroo" method. Babies thrive on cuddles & lots of love.

Wind is a constant problem with newborns too. My son suffered terribly with colic for about the first 3 months. He'd scream solidly from 5pm to 9pm every night. It was a nightmare! Gripe water & Infacol became my best buddies (these can only be given from 1 month old!). I strongly recommend that you have a bottle of each in your home, as well as Calpol. Wink
