Cranky 1 month baby

My lo just turn one month and currently one month and 2 weeks. She's about 6 weeks now For the past few days, she's been very cranky. No matter what I do it doesn't please her. Change her diapers, feed her, put her to sleep but she still cry. I don't think it's colic as I burp her after every feed. Any idea how to calm her down or why she's like that? I starting to feel distant from my baby for a couple of days, due to lack of sleep and I have been super duper mentally exhausted. No one really helped me at home. Idk how to handle this already I'm starting to lose myself. I'm just worried I do anything that will hurt my lo. #1stimemom #firstbaby #pleasehelp #advicepls #depressionisreal

Hi Dee, facing the same issue with my 3 week + boy. Typically it happens around 6 plus to 8 plus in the evening. he doesn’t sleep for long in the afternoon hence he’s always overly tired. He is also fully on expressed breastmilk and feeds and poops well. He’ll have a bad day and then a not so bad day and then a bad day again. I don’t know what’s causing it as we’ve already burped him enough and he doesn’t spit up milk so you’re definitely not alone. I can only hope it’s a phase and will pass soon.
