I still remember my struggle. All 3 child I jaga sendiri since confinement until besar. If they crying too severe it's usually because of angin.
Secondly, your baby is the one controlling you.
Stop this schedule. You have to take charge to make your baby follow your schedule.

Don't manja the child. Sikit sikit bunyi wake up. So put on a small radio 24/7 with lower volume. Let the child get use to it.

Do not let him sleep so much day time. Most importantly if this is severe case you should rub baby oilment very REGULARLY on the child's stomach (Rub both palm together to generate heat then rub the child's stomach downward) The movement will push angin keluar from perut, biar dia kentut.

After each feed must make him burping (this is a must)
Can try to let the child sleep on stomach that way he/she more comfortable and feel secure.

The best colic liquid is still the old brand
Woodwards Gripe Water

I never regret went true this struggle at least next time i won't be a laughing stock as grandparent.
This is a very good experience, enjoy it.

Your nanny so senang one, I also can do such work, just watch baby sleep all the time and take gaji.
Once nanny manja oredi it's very hard to turn back clock. You can but it took awhile to adjust back. You need to spend more time to keep him awake day time with just 1 time 1 hour or split it half hour 2-3 times nap day time so he can sleep smoothly throughout the night.

If he is just crying because u put him down the bed means he manja oredi.
Ever heard him crying while farting? It's angin.
Maybe he got frighten of something, sleeping on his back without anything to hold on to him he feel insecure.
Just let him sleep on side or there's a beanie type of pillow that has a little weight to press down on his stomach. This feels like someone is holding or hugging him.
Let him sleep on his stomach. U can slowly turn him face down on his stomach, turn his head to the side after he fell asleep.

About massage his stomach, after bathing is a must!
After 1hour (when u see his about to start crying) each feeding. If he still breastfeed, regular poop is very normal.
If he is taking soya milk that could be a problem on constipation. Kenot poop will make him cry too, its worse when u have to find ways to get his poop out.

So u have to be fimiliar with his behavior. Observe his move and facial expression.

Glad there's improvement.
Its OK, you do not need to update us here, your responsibility is only on your baby, just continue the good effort.
