Take breaks and prioritize self-care. When overwhelmed, take deep breaths and count to 10 before placing the baby in a safe space, like a crib, and stepping away for a short period. Engage in relaxing activities like listening to music or doing simple household chores. Seek emotional support from friends or family members. If feelings of overwhelm persist, contact the child’s doctor for further guidance. Frustration is normal, but it’s crucial never to shake or harm the baby. Remember that crying is a normal part of infancy, and with time and patience, it will pass. Focus on keeping the baby safe and seek help when needed.
