It won't take all it's bottle and we don't know why it's crying :eek: Tried a dummy, burping it, rocking it... It just wants us to panic and call it's mom I think :nono: Our baby experience is highly limited lol. Help :(

How old is he/she? Firstly you need to rule out

too hot/cold
pain
hunger
nappy change needed

She's 7 1/2 weeks old and she's not in pain, she stops but then randomly starts up again. She's taken most of her bottle but there's still just short of 3 oz in there. I hope she doesn't need a nappy change, her mom did it just before she got here at 11! Guess I'll have to check :( She had done big burps and farts. On my knee none the less, felt like I'd been shot

How long has she been awake? Ruling out the above, maybe she is tired, and gotten herself overtired. Put her in her pram and take her for a stroll :)

Have you tried giving her water? She could be thirsty.

It does sound like shes fighting sleep, you might find walking round with her resting on your shoulder will do the trick.
