Hi can empathize NewMom. My DS, now 8, was the most demanding baby. If he was awake and not eating, he was crying. I even videotaped it! Walks and books and new places and faces definitely helped. Also he really loved music and I would play everything from Broadway tunes to hard rock and dance with him. Remember to take time out for yourself as well! Once he could crawl and then walk he was happier, still demanding but happier.
