Not sleeping in the night / 3 months old
My baby girl is 82 days old. Two weeks before her weight is 5 kg. Birth weight is 2.7kg. From past one month whole night starting from 8 pm she is crying in the night. If i rock her in hand she sleeps for 10 to 15 minutes. My pediatrician suggested me to give triclofos 2 ml if there is excessive cry. I have severe postpartum depression, in the night am taking medicine, it's very difficult for me to stay awake whole night. My father and mother is also old. So from past 10 days am giving her triclofos 0.5 ml or 0.4ml most of the nights. After giving drops we need to rock her 1 to 1 and hour to make her sleep. I feel guilty for this. Please tell me what can i do to make her sleep. Of is that fine?

Give proper burping after each feed
The reason for her excessive cry would be colicky pain..
