I know this is an old video but I needed with video, thank you! 8 months in 😅

So genuinely nice and kind. Love this.

My daughter is 9 months , she doesn’t sleep and always wants attention, if I’m lucky I sleep 15 min a day

Your videos are still a weekly go to for relaxation and ASMR. Hope all is well!

Hi, my name is Miriam and my 6 month year old is using a cranial helmet. Buy hanger clinic. Are they good helmets? Are they better than cranial technologies?

I know how you feel where all the other babies are quiet and you feel alone and wonder what is wrong with my baby. I have 3 babies and they’ve all been high needs. Going through it again with my youngest at 16 months. I get PPD every time 😢 It’s rough until they’re around 3.

How you teach her to sleep on crib? My baby scream when i put and n8t stop untill i take him up..really frustrating

How long it takes to get easier 😕 i am suffering a lot. I have back pain by holding him all day night cant put him down at all.

I hate feeling like people want my baby to 'perform' for them. My son is generally pretty smiley and extroverted but that doesn't make him any better or worse than more introspective kids. I grew up being told to smile and it was awful!

After watching your high needs baby video and thinking your voice was so soothing I was so excited to see you have actual ASMR videos 😊 Wish you would make some more!

My son was very active in the womb, and even though he was in the NICU for a month he has been blazing through his gross motor milestones. Rolling at 3 months and crawling at 5. Hates the stroller/carseat so going anywhere is difficult. Sleeps with me, screams as soon as I leave the room. I try to get him to play with his toys but he mostly wants to be held. Every day I feel so stressed 🙃

I have a high need baby who was extremely active in womb and caused a preterm membrane rapture . He has no routine and wakes up all hours of the night despite being sleep trained and self soothing . He is intense in every aspect from wanting to be fed instantly to crying historically. His moods change almost instantly and it’s extremely hard to keep him happy . Nothing seems to be enough . At 5 month he is already showing sign of holding his weight and wanting to walk . He is not interested in lying down or doing any floor play . My saviour is a jolly jumper .

This is good to know...I have a high needs baby

My baby was initially pretty calm on most part, but would not sleep during the day (but sleep almost thru the night) at the 4-5 months it started to get all that your baby was doing initially 😩😩 now I don’t know when it might be over !

Wow, this has been my experience with my son. He's 6mo old now and I found out that he is a high needs baby via a Dr.Sears article. It has saved my sanity to learn about this. It is so challenging and it is the same consistent behaviors but they do switche up every week (the older he gets/the more awareness he has). Is good to read about other moms going through it too. He's our 3rd baby BTW so I knew there was something different after a few weeks of him just not being comfortable. Never comfortable!

Funny. My son is also a high needs baby and on the 13 weeks ultrasound he moved soooo much, it was very hard to take measurements.

I feel like I have PTSD from my first daughter. She cried 8 hours a night from 8pm-4am every night for like the first 6 weeks and at about a month we realized doing squats and lunges would keep her quiet. As she got older, things have gotten easier but at 5 years old it is still a challenge. She was very advanced physically and even read her first book by 39months. It seems that her high spiritedness was also accompanied by high levels of intelligence and great physical build strength athletic ability. However, because she was soo spirited and still is whenever I see a baby I feel anxiety because of the extreme difficulty the first 6-12 months of her life. While they improve, the temperament usually remains constant and it takes a lot of patience to get through it. You look how I felt and it is the most isolating difficult experience anyone can experience . What made it worse, she only allowed me to hold her. She would scream with her father, so I didn’t even have him to help. Lol it’s been 5 years, but it’s still nice to talk about.

14 months in here! Still at home with my high needs son. Things have gotten a little better now that he’s a toddler and more mobile but every evening still feels like I’ve just had the most tiring, challenging day of my life. Like when you’ve had an insanely busy day at work and you’re just mentally exhausted. That feeling. Every day. Also feeling alone in this and no one can relate.

Love your video.

Oh no, are you not making videos anymore?

Hello I’m trying to figure out if my son (8 weeks) is a high need baby. He fights his sleep a lot during the day like sometimes he doesn’t sleep at all during the day and gets super fuzzy due to being tired also his feeding is at random times he doesn’t really go with a schedule… but he does stay in bed or on a bouncer for a little bit even when he does catch sleep he will sleep like on a rocker… he doesn’t really cry when I put him down unless he’s hungry

Hi Andrea, thanks for the videos. Can you explain better what are the differences between the two decks?

Ahh it’s so nice to see that I’m not the only one going through this. It’s so isolating, all my friends have such calm babies but mine is constantly crying and fussing. I can’t put her down for half a second. I’m always exhausted

please more and fast ripping some paper and I hope to show your face when ripping the paper thank you!

This is exactly like my son! A lot of screaming... many other people tell me their babies are crying a lot, and I listen to their videos... boy they have no idea what screaming really is like until they have met my son! And he hates tummy time too!

Tks so much for this video. I have a high needs baby as well and he is from 21st May hahaha...maybe something in common?! I'm still breastfeeding and he is 18months old now and is the only thing that really calls him down.

I am dealing with the same. Love our baby so much. I am exhausted though. She will NOT sleep in her crib or bassinet. She will only sleep on me or my husband. There is no schedule because she also fights sleep. This whole watch for wake windows etc. garbage. She will only nap when she wants. 🤷‍♀️ I am so exhausted that I don’t even bother trying to put her in the crib and get up every 4 min when she wakes up. We trade off sitting up w her while she sleeps. All I see online is, oh if your baby won’t nap or self soothe it’s your fault. It’s hard to find anything that she enjoys. 😭

Oh NO!!! The bad news. I feel so melancholy to learn you're not single. (Joking, that's normal for a person who is obviously well-rounded). I bet over time you will find more women reaching out to you, especially mothers in same circumstances.

Yay Abby!!!! Jumping on furniture is fun. I am an "adult" and I *STILL* like jumping on furniture!!! Woop!!! Woop!!! [ looks around the room self-consciously and then sits down in the corner ]

So "into" the secretary "office girl" thing. Your voice is enrapturing. Don't use that voice at work or none of the males will get their work done daydreaming about you.

Omg she's so precious!

Nice...can you make long videos of only ripping all the useless documents,junk mail,pamphlets,magazines on the desk at normal way and speed?..Please do not slowly and in strips!!!!!.with you and with your sensual hands its will be splendid!!!!....thanks very much 😘:-))

Hi Abby! Nice to meet you

I know what you mean. I feel the pressure from social media and the internet as well. Lots of people saying that children are a nuisance for just doing kids things, and parents are always wrong no matter what decision they make. I agree that I want my child to be herself and not whomever society expects her to be.

I really love your perspective! It's so nice to hear a kind, caring perspective on this topic. I am not a parent but want to be in a few years after grad school. The only thing that bothers me in parents is when they say that they are the parent so they know best about everything - including medical needs. Co-sleeping or vaccines, for example. As far as behavior goes, I think parents do really get to know their children the best. You're right - negative comments about something like a child not smiling is so unhelpful! what good does it serve? You seem like a great mom, and I'm glad you have really given this a lot of thought! xoxo

Hope you're all having a great week! I would love to hear your thoughts 😊💜

Hi I’m a momma to 3 months old baby girl, I discovered my baby is a high needs baby since she was 2 month old and she quite similar as you described your lovely daugther are, you mentioned in the previous video that nap and bed time is very challenging, how do you mean by that? as I’m getting frustated because nap and bed time is horrible for me, my daughter screams her lung out every nap and bed time😢 i’m so hopeless

Awesome content Andrea, thank you!

Sounds like a Waldorf baby :)

Good interview!

How does someone know if they have a high needs baby or just a colicky baby??

God bless you and thank you for your video ♥️

Yay there's an update. Been getting tired again lately with my spirited 11 month old. Especially with a sleep regression and co-sleeping not even helping her settle for hours. We've add foot stomping to meltdowns and fussing when I making meals and can't pack her heavy butt. Plus no one else can ever watch her. Especially with quarantine. I had to quit work or continue to just pay for childcare. She's currently destroying my house and if she isn't begging to be held I let her explore and do it. Aside when she get mad when I take her away from things that aren't safe. I'm so drained. You're so sweet. Thank you.

Thank you Andrea for sharing your story, it’s so similar to what’s happening for my son and it’s making me feel less alone!

Great video! Do you make custom paper ripping videos for purchase?
