K has cried when I feed, change, burp, put her down or hold her. I'm going to lose it. I have no fucking idea what is wrong and I'm in tears. I'm at the point where I'm just going to just put her down and let her cry. What else can I do? I feel horrible about this but seriously I can't make her stop.
It really is ok to set her down and let her cry while you take a couple minutes to breathe. The little break will help you and she's going to be crying either way.

Seriously sucky, but totally normal. If you need to set her down and walk away, do it. As long as she's safe it won't hurt her and she needs a sane mother above all else.

Oh yea also, nothing is wrong. Do not beat yourself up. Babies cry. It could be that she got overstimulated, or because she didnt sleep well earlier now she cant relax (sleep begets sleep). But honestly, it is nothing. You are doing a wonderful job taking care of her, and she knows it. It will get better. Hang in there.

I am waiting for the call with a time for today for induction. FX that I don't get bumped. A little nervous to leave Isaac overnight. It will be a first.

Fingers crossed!! Keep us updated. I'm sure Isaac will be in great hands!
SheilaTheTank - it could be gas. Gas drops are ok for them at this age. Then there's always the bicycle exercises with their legs or rubbing his/her tummy.

DS was a super, colicky/crying baby, I'm talking cried all. Day. Long. With nothing wrong with him. MH had to watch him while I went to night school and sometimes would lay him in the swing, put on headphones, and go work in the garage (not for long) to distract himself from the crying. A friend also suggested that we put him down in a safe place and sit outside on a porch to gather ourselves together.
I say that because babies cry for no reason, and it is better for you to maintain your sanity than to end up losing it. If her needs have been met, grab something to drink/eat and take a breather away from the situation, then come back and love all on her. You are doing a good job momma, and she will be fine.

Yes- do this if you need to. My oldest cried a lot. It was frustrating because I tried everything to get her to stop. Sometimes I put her down for a few minutes while I took a break and collected myself. Do you have a wrap or carrier? It might be worth a shot!

Yes to all of this, SheilaTheTank. Just plopped DD down with the Bubble Guppies and put DS in his crib so I could take a shower. He cried the whole time, but he just wants to be freaking held. I enjoyed my shower despite his fussiness. Take a moment to regroup. You're doing nothing wrong.

No updates in 5 hours... Hope that means it's baby day for you!!!
I had such high hopes today would be my day. It's my mom's birthday, and I'm due tomorrow. Stupid overfull hospital.

Kicking it in L&D. Again. Haven't felt any movement all morning, so they had me come in. Strong HB, and I've felt a couple kicks since they manipulated the hell out of me looking for that HB. I feel better, and expect to be sent home soon. I sure wish I could talk someone into keeping me though.

I sure hope baby comes for you soon. What a stressful couple days you've had! Honestly while I didn't say it to my ob one of the reasons I asked to be induced this week was I can't handle the worrying about movement.

Remind me when you're due again? I'm tomorrow.
I reeeeeeally wish the u/s tech hadn't tweaked me out about being sluggish and my fluid level. I can't stop my brain from going nuts. And now, it seems like Encore has fallen back asleep again.

Yesterday. He was going to let me go another week and then discuss induction. I asked to be induced sooner because of her size. He didn't even hesitate just said ok and picked Monday.
Yeah I can't believe the tech told you anything! They'd get in huge trouble sharing that here. Here they aren't even allowed to tell you the sex at your a/s ultrasound you have to wait to see your ob/mw. All they've ever told me was her size at each ultrasound (I've had 5 since 29 weeks). I spend a lot of time poking and shoving at her when she hasn't moved in a while. Eating a cup of ice used to wake her up too so maybe do that.

I don't think she had much choice to tell me she was concerned about movement. She practically had me doing gymnastics in there, trying to get anything. A flick of a wrist, a shift in position, anything. After awhile, (and much painful rolling around) she finally saw something. Then Encore went back to sleep.
Trying not to worry... But that HB thrumming away is very comforting.
Sheesh it's tough keeping up here... but my random of the day... I think there's a nocturnal animal living in our walls!! Eeek!
I feel your pain. We have squirrels in our attic and birds living in our dryer vent. Our landlords are "working on it".
Oh man, this is driving me crazy! I think it's a bat from what mr. Google has told me but it's our home so I gotta pay someone to take care of it or let it die in walls and stick up the house. Eew, I'm so skeeved out.

Can you get a trap and try to catch it yourself?
I wouldn't even know where to start, I can't figure out how to get to where the sound is coming from.
Can someone help me with getting in the fb group? Daydreamsam asked for my email and sent an invite but then I never got anything and now she's busy with a new little squish.

Hmm.. I don't have rights to add but I do remember a lot of the invites going to people's spam folders. Did you check there?
I just snot suckered the biggest boogie out of LO, seriously adult sized
do you use saline first? I feel like I'm drowning him if I use the saline.
No I didn't. Are you supposed to?
I saw a little boog at the base so I suckered it but it just kept coming and was huge. I have saline wipes that I got for free but I thought they were for older babies. We
