Feeling helpless

Question

My baby is 1 month 27 days today. I’m going to start work next week. I have a helper and she still doesn’t know well how to handle my girl. Im having sleepless night too due to baby is having colic and growth spurt. Im so worried about letting baby alone with her next week esp when baby is crying hard. Any tips how to tackle this problem? Anyone? #firsttimemom

Hang in there. Colic babies are challenging. They are not exactly tips but this what I would do: (1) find support - family and friends. It takes a village to raise a kid. We gotta learn to let go and let them help. (2) learn her body language and favourite positions. You may find certain positions bring more comfort to your baby, especially colicky ones.
