Serena Williams continues to share the highs and lows from her early days of parenthood.

The 36-year-old tennis pro on Sunday took to Instagram to solicit advice as she nurtured her baby daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr., through painful process of teething.

She shared a shot of the adorable baby on Instagram clad in a Versace bib, writing, 'Teething - aka the devil - is so hard,' adding that 'poor Alexis Olympia has been so uncomfortable' as her first teeth sprout in.

Serena said that her daughter, who 'never cries,' 'cried so much' that she 'had to hold her until she fell asleep.'

Serena, who welcomed her daughter on September 1 with her husband, Reddit mogul Alexis Ohanian, said that she experimented with remedies ranging from amber beads to cold towels to homeopathic water, to no avail.

'Nothing is working,' said Serena, who added she was heartbroken amid the futile effort to soothe her child.

'I almost need my mom,' Serena wrote of her mother, Oracene Price, 'to come and hold me to sleep cause I'm so stressed.'

The 5ft9 athlete has frequently taken to social media as she immerses herself in motherhood, posting a stream of selfies, clips and writings reflective of her experiences, which range from sentimental to frustrated, depending on how little Alexis is feeling. (The loving mom has also set up an Instagram account for the baby girl, which already has more than 168,000 followers.)

Earlier this month, she took to Twitter seeking advice in regards to breastfeeding, writing, 'Fellow moms: How long did you breastfeed? Is it weird that I get emotional when I even just think about when it’s time to stop?'

Serena and the tech mogul Ohanian began dating in late 2015; she had previously been romantically linked to French tennis coach Patrick Mouratoglou, rapper Common and embattled Hollywood director Brett Ratner.

She tied the knot with Ohanian last month in a star-studded wedding in New Orleans attended by Kim Kardashian and Eva Longoria, among others.
