​I'm a first time mom and need to remind myself every day "you're doing great mom!"  Every baby looses weight at first, every baby cries (a lot) even the 'good babies,' babies seem endlessly hungry, have gas pains, colic, acne, cradle cap, etc.  As hard as it is, you can't compare yourself to other parents and babies.  As long as you are loving your baby and doing the best you can, you're doing great!  Keep trying different things till you find what works for you/baby.  And put down that phone or tablet, you'll never get this day with your baby back!
