Parenting advice without the corruption: I'm a proud west coast mom of little Stella and even littler Robert. I believe in parenting based on science and evidence. Unlike other mommy blogs, I'm not trying to sell you anything so I tell you exactly what I'm thinking, not what I want you to buy! I might write a book in the future but the content will always be free.

My newborn whines or cries ALL DAY
Poor baby! And oh my god, this is so exhausting for the Momma and Dadda! First off, have you tried the 5 S’s? If this isn’t working, consider asking your pediatrician about whether your little one might have a medical condition because a baby should NOT be unhappy most of her waking hours.
For my poor little Stella, it turns out that she has milk protein intolerance. I was passing on the milk protein through breastfeeding and her tummy pain must have been excruciating. On the suggestion of the doctor, I cut out milk and cheese from my diet, and for a few days, put her on formula while the dairy worked its way out of my system. Within a few days, she stopped whining. What a relief! The pediatrician says that this isn’t the same as lactose intolerance, so it’s not enough to just switch to say lactose-free milk.
Your doctor might suggest other things too. Keep digging and if needed, see another doctor for a second opinion if you aren’t getting advice that works. And I’m not satisifed with a diagnosis of “colic” since it’s really a non-diagnosis of “we have NO IDEA so we call it colic”. You and your precious baby both deserve to be happy and pain-free!
