My son had colic and it was so hard. I had a hard time breastfeeding so we finally found a Lactose -Free formula that helped.
He got better at about 4 months - stopped crying every evening, etc.
It was so hard; I feel your pain. I was a single mother - with my family hours away. One day I called my girlfriend at work (I was still on maternity leave) and I was crying myself; hadn't had any sleep in I don't know when and Matt wouldn't stop crying. She came over - told me to get out of the house for a couple of hours - and when I got home - Matt was sound asleep -on his tummy. Which I never put him on but it worked for her.
Anyway, I will never forget it - I really needed support that day and she gave it to me.
I hope that things get better soon. Going back to work was hard because I was up a lot at night - but it did help us to get on a better and regular schedule.
Hang tight!
