Emiliano's cry woke me up, again. I get it 'he is just a baby' I know but I also know that this isn't normal. I already took him to our best pediatrician but nothing, he said that he is a perfectly healthy baby boy.
He's my son for fuck sake, it hurts me that I can't help him while he's crying his eyes out.
He's only two months old and I know that babies cry nonstop, whether it be because they are hungry, thirsty, or even because they need a fresh diaper. Although I'm already used to those cries and I know how to recognize them, but cry which he usually uses is some which I don't know where to place.
It's not like his usual cries there are rarely tears, it's more like he is screaming until someone starts paying attention to him. He would usually calm himself when I would take him into my arms but these days neither that could calm down his crying.
"Ugh.." I groaned as I got up, looking at the alarm clock I see that it's just a little over 4 am. Sighing I walk through the door that connects my room with Emiliano's. I made it as soon as I found out that I'm gonna be a dad. The room is mostly white but filled with a bunch of colorful toys.
As I neared his crib like he can feel my presence he opened his beautiful blue eyes and looked at me. And then just like he is trying to say 'fuck you' he started to scream even louder while looking at me.
I chuckled at that "Shhh, mio figlio." I said softly while lifting him from his crib into my arms. He snuggled into my chest but continued to wail only a little bit quieter. ("Shhh, my son.")

"Shh.. I'm here, I'm not going anywhere. Shhh, calmati bambino." I spoke to him and he slowly started to calming himself, I rocked him a little till he fell asleep again. ("Shhh, calm down baby.")
Putting him back into his crib I pull the thin blanket over his little body and turn around to exit his room. I stopped at the doorway and look at him once more to see that he didn't move an inch.
After I convinced myself that he is sleeping I walk into my room and look to see that it's almost 5 am. "Well, I guess I'm not gonna sleep any longer," I muttered under my breath. Turning and walking into the closet. I pick a new suit for today and walk into the bathroom.
