I have had such a long day already and it's not even over yet! my son is sick rite, and he is driving me crazy. I mean i take care of him give him what he needs but all he wants is for me to hold him and to clime all over me all the time and i don't feel very good myself and to hear him cry like he dose is driving me crazy. I am not the tipe to hold my son 24/7 and stuff like that but idk what to do anymore with him or for him. I need advice! i mean do i let him cry do i hold him anyway? I have no one to call for help. i feel so alone and forgotten about!
someone please tell me what i should do!
You hold him and comfort him. He is sick and wants his momma. I don't understand how that is a hard concept.
Btw how old is he
I know when my DD was sick as a baby, that's all she wanted was to be held and comforted. I didn't find that a problem - -because she was sick - and because I didn't hold her 24/7 otherwise.
Yeah, sometimes I was sick at the same time and didn't really want to "do more" - - but little ones don't understand that part. They only know the want/need comforting and that mommy won't give it.
It won't last long - get a cup of tea/coffee/drink of choice and snuggle up with him, a blanket and a movie.
Lay down with him. Pile up in bed, watch tv if you have one in the bedroom or read him some stories....Hopefully he will go to sleep
It can be very frustrating sometimes. Do you have any one you can call to get a short break. Or even step outside for a few minutes to have a few minutes of quiet. I hope you both feel better soon.
If you can't get a few minutes away, maybe lay on the couch with him and try to relax. If he has been like this since surgery, have you talked to his doctor about it?

My son is 13 months. He loves to do his own thing. But when he wants me he gets me. Calm down and so will he.

yeah we talked to doc and spent another 3 or 4 days in hospital jus last week trying to fig out wat was rong with him. they said he has a viral infection. and gave him meds. so now we jus have to wait for him to get better. but that is the hard part.
Happy Memorial Day.
