I think I'm losing it. My baby is 2 weeks old and I am standing at the window crying together with her. It's so hard. I look at her and I love her but it's really hard. She wakes up ever hour crying and I just don't know what to do.

Hi, I was there before too. It is really hard initially and I kept crying too. Especially when mine had jaundice, i could not have proper confinement food cos of the fear of increasing his jaundice.

Babies cry for so many reasons. Sometimes they just need comfort, most of the time they are hungry because their stomachs are still small. It could also be colic. It will get better.
