Help!! Ways to settle/calm a newborn before my head explodes

[leesha]

Sounds like it could be my post exactly! This has been going on for the last two weeks :-(
I have no answers as nothing I try is working, getting him to sleep is easy but keeping him asleep is not!
The only thing I do now to make sure the other two aren't being neglected is put him in my hug a bub do my hands are free to help them and he gets an hour sleep!
It's doing my head in but I believe it will pass soon enough....well I tell myself that or I'll go cookoo......................

Dd2 was like this and the only thing that worked was walking around with her in a hug a bub sling. She was a chunky bub and she liked being upright and on me, all the time!

Sounds like my two silent reflux babies - it kicked in around 6 weeks of age.

Did you manage some sleep?
