Sounds like colic. It'll pass. Sorry man.

Not reading all that 8 page shite but same problem with our first, reflux, ended up getting this sling thing that attached to a wedge shaped pillow thing, WORKED MIRACLES.

Definitely sounds like colic to me. Out of my 3 kids only one was difficult at night. For that I was thankful. Don’t miss those days and nights

I didn’t read the whole thread, but have you tried gas drops immediately after feeding?

Not reading 8 pages and may have been suggested already, but if you are breastfeeding it could be a cow milk protein allergy. Our second child screamed like hell for a few weeks. Switched to a hypoallergenic Formula to see what happened and it was an immediate change in mood for our child. My wife cut out all soy and dairy from her diet and went back to breastfeeding and never had issues again (outside of standard crying). Lots of research and articles on it. It’s worth a try. Only 1 out of our 3 had that issue.

Don't listen to all the BS about sleeping in your bed or crying it out. I have 3 kids and they all slept either next to or in our bed as infants. They were breast fed and always wanted to be close to momma, and there isn't a damn thing wrong with that. Go see a different doc or even a lactation specialist. Get some help for you and the wife.

Just because nothing happened to your babies doesn’t mean it’s not dangerous. I would imagine the parents that have had a baby die this way would strongly disagree with your statement.
Facts are there in black and white. Babies have died from being smothered by their parents while sleeping in the bed with them.
There are safer options/products for having the baby closer to the bed. I’m not saying baby can’t sleep close to the bed, just not IN the bed.

If you think it is fussy now, just wait until she or he starts fighting and hitting. Or reaches teenage years.
Crying will be least of your problems.

My kids were the same way. Let them sleep in their car seat. They will sleep all night and you can put seat on floor right next to bed. You’re welcome. Parenting is easy

So many things to address in your post
Yeah, you'll want to stop that now or you'll find yourself still practicing this when they are 2. We had a rocker next to our bed that she slept in for the first few months and then we transitioned her to her crib. Worked great for us.
That's a big no-no. Newborns need 12-16 hours of sleep a day.
Whoever told you that gave bad advice. Studies have been done showing that especially at that age, to let them cry out is damaging to their development.
Ultimately that's what counts. The first 3 months are probably the hardest, at least they were for us. Around month 3 we started a night time routine. Bath, read a book, breast/bottle, then bedtime. Our daughter is in bed by 6:30 pm every night and she will sleep through till morning unless she is sick. You are just in the rough of it. It will get better, but it is still so very new. My wife helped me out and since I still had to work she would always get up with baby during the week and I would do the weekends. Perhaps discuss this method.

Doctors said nothing wrong with her, and she is gaining normal weight, she is just a fussy baby, and hoping for thing to get better soon.

Agree with car seat or swing. Car seat on a running dryer was what we did years ago.

Try formula some. Try some gas drops. Never let a kid sleep in your bed. That’s your biggest mistake. You can’t sleep well if your kid sleeps by you regardless of the age.

It's dangerous for druggies, drunks, and fats.
Posted on 10/7/19 at 8:08 am to dragginass
talk to anyone that works in EMS and they will tell you how wrong you are

I understand why most doctors and nurses say what they say.
Posted on 10/7/19 at 8:11 am to dragginass
Your previous posts suggest the complete opposite
Posted on 10/7/19 at 8:16 am to Salmon
Like I said...absent fatties, druggies, and smokies there is little evidence. Truthful doctors acknowledge this. But carry on.
"Nevertheless, the two studies came to similar conclusions. For babies older than 3 months of age, there was no detectable increased risk of SIDS among families that practiced bed-sharing, in the absence of other hazards."

The baby is hungry. That's what crying is for 3 months. She's telling you she's hungry. and your wife isn't producing enough to satisfy her. That's common. Happened with both my kids. Your wife is going tm cry when you tell her she isn't producing enough. Don't be an a-hole when she does.
Go buy some Enfamil gentle-ease and supplement after breastfeeding. This formula is expensive but if your baby has gas or reflux it's the best I've found.
Also, find a new doctor. Reflux test and increase feeding should've been suggestion number 1 from any doctor worth a shite.
