Your son sounds difficult to soothe and calm.  But a baby isn't throwing fits.  He is a baby, they cry to communicate as what other way can they let you know if they are unhappy, tired, hungry, etc?  Please try to be patient and understand that he isn't bad for crying even if it seems like a lot.  That is the only way he can talk to you.  What are you feeding him?  He is probably still having formula and now some table food.  Is it upetting his stomach?  Try burping him without patting but just rub up and down firmly on his back----  this burps a baby as well.  Put a pillow under his mattress in his bed to prop it up a bit.  How long will he cry if you lay him down at night?  There is something called the Furber method for helping kids fall asleep without you.  Do it lovingly though.  I know it is hard when they are young and you are as sleep deprived as they are.  But hang in there.  Do you have a mother or sister or best friend you could leave him with for a short while?  You may be surprised----  he may do just fine.  And you could use the break. But please don't be angry with him for crying.  I wish you all the best.

thank you for replying,i tried the rubbing of the back.its like this when i hold him he wants me to put him down cant stop moving,when he see me pick up the bottle he screams on top of hes lungs,the only way i can feed him is to strap him in his car seat cause he will stay.even when i try to change him he crys and try to crawl away.then when i put him him his play pen he will scream for hours no tears, just screaming.when i lay him down he'll start screaming ill pick him back up he does this all night unless i hold him while he sleeps.he eat oatmeal,sometimes baby food.he only like fruit.i dont want anyone to watch because how he acts.i feel like he'll come out of this phase one day.i pray everyday for this to get better.thank you for your understanding
