5 month old

I have a 5 month old little boy. For the past 2 weeks his mood has changed alot. He never seems to be happy, he used to never cry but now he cries alot. He gets bored very easily. I dont know what else to do. I feel like he just hates being around me!

Has anyone else been through this or has any words of advice please x

Have you had him checked out by a doctor to make sure there’s no medical cause for his irritability?

Could he be teething?

Or it could even just be a developmental leap making him a bit fussier than usual? x

I'm not sure what's wrong. I think possibly teething but nothing helps as in pain relief etc. I dont want to go the drs and them laugh at me! X
