2 month old baby doesnt want to sleep during the day?

Question

My cousins 2 month old baby boy hates to sleep during the day. He wakes up every 3 hours at night to eat, and sleeps normal hours but in the day he doesnt want to sleep he will cry and cry out of desperation to sleep but its like he forgets how. His mom does everything to try to make him sleep, with music, no music, swing, cuddling, ferber method, everything but its like nothing helps. What to do?

Answer 1

sounds like colic to me. my daughter was a bit colicky for 3 months. she had been very jaundice too which increases the chance of colic. it's stressful, but here is a website with some ideas.

and i would recommend Gripe Water. you can get it at Wal*Mart next to the Mylicon. Mylicon is for gas...you might try that too if your friends baby is formula fed. i used to run the vacuum cleaner to get my daughter to settle down. sounds weird but they like the humming noise i think.
