Breastfeeding 101

Hi lovely mamas,

My LB is nearly 20 months old and I am getting to a stage of severe sleep deprivation and I am now considering to start night weaning. We co-sleep and he can access boobies whenever he pleases, which pretty much means I am a human dummy.

I love breastfeeding and I am hoping to let him self wean, but I have to do something about night time as he wakes up loads of times, I work full time and I am just knackered.

Any suggestions? I would of course like to approach this in a gentle way and the less tears the better :)

All of a sudden it hurts when she latches how can I improve her latch she is 18 months old and only feeds at bedtime and through the night is she wakes up

Out of curiosity here, has anyone had a toddler that they’ve breastfed and coslept to sleep since birth that have started sleeping longer during the night by themselves and weaned a bit on their own?

My toddlers sleep is absolutely dreadful. She used to sleep 2 hours in the day, and it’s a constant struggle, I’ve tried to follow her own routine and no matter what I can’t quite get it. Wakes at 7 most days, gets tired around half 10 (I’ve tried to stretch it closer to 12 but doesn’t happen) and wakes an hour and a half later. No matter what I try she will refuse a second nap and has done for months which leads to complete overtiredness at bedtime, which I’ve had to move forward most days to accommodate her.

Guess I’m just looking for hope that she will eventually sleep😂
