I don't recall DD being that way.
Anyway, back to the fussiness, I am convinced it's a overtired thing here. DS started out sleeping about 23 hours per day. and it's really hard to get him back to sleep. The wrap is the one foolproof method of getting him to sleep,
As I was reading this I was thinking that sounds like our ds...WOW It seems all he wants to do is sleep if hes awake hes either eating or fussing or crying (which irritates my dh to no end). It seems he overeats then spits up everything because he wanted to suckle extra, and he won't take a pacifier.

I think this is payback for my dd who was so calm and mellow. The only time she was real cranky was 6-7 pm I can deal with an hour. DS is total opposite.
