I babysit this little girl whos' just about to be 4 weeks old i also babysit a boy whos 3 half and my daughters 4 half. great kids except the little one.. she cries all the time tho. I mean i have one daughter but this little girl cries evn if you just lay her down to make a bottle. You can put her down for nothing she just wants you to hold her all the time. My husband and I have been trying to have one together now for almost two years and no luck now after keeping her im thinking maybe i dont wnat one at all. I keep telling myself i just didnt get enough sleep (only 4 hrs) and im grouchy but has anyone ever thought this after trying for so long hell why am i even trying? lol. What is wrong with me??!?! Now i feel bad about it!!

Nothing is wrong with you... your just exhausted. It is not good to hold a baby all the time and it is good for them to manage a little crying. Next time, the best thing you can do is makesure the baby is cared completely for and when you set her down...let her cry until her little heart is content. Step out and get some fresh air for a minute...if you need too. If you wanted a baby and now your second guessing... its probably just your due for some "YOU" time. Everyone needs it and you should not feel guilty.

She might have colic. She might have a bad formula that is harder for her to digest, and only feels better when be comforted by you. I went through this with our son at 3 weeks old (when colic appears the most) and i changed him from goodstart to similac alimentum and it made a world of difference, its like we have a new baby. Hes 5 weeks now, and is very content when you lay him down. He would scream anytime we set him down before. But hey if all else fails crying will not hurt the baby.

that baby could have the colic. dont let that stop you from trying because all babies are not alike. the only thing about a little baby they can not tell you what is wrong. i do know the colic really hurt them. feel her stomach and if it is real hard she has the colic bad tell her parents to buy her some mylocon drops.

LOL!! Nothing is wrong with you.. The little one is just spoiled! Blame it on her parents.. You and your husband continue to try to have a child. The pregnancy will happen when you least expect it.. Just remember not to spoil your child or your babysitter will be writing questions here on YA :)
