My baby is a terror. I love him but all's he does is scream if I am not holding him constantly, and I mean constantly. I have to hold him while going to the bathroom, when he goes to sleep. The instant I put him down, even if seemingly in a dead sleep, he will wake up screaching like someone just branded him. He was diagnosed with acid reflux when he was 3 weeks old and the doctor recommended that I hold him upright after each feeding, and to hold him upright when he slept, (he had a severe case of acid reflux.) He has been fine for the last 3 months no symptoms and he is off the medicine completely, but now when I put him down he just screams. I was told to just let him cry it out, and so far everyday I lay him in his crib and let him scream, the longest I let it go on for was 2 hours, after that I thought it was just abuse. Does anyone have any suggestions for this mother at her wits end. I love him but he is very trying and I am starting to lose patience with him. Please help
