How often are you still all breastfeeding?

We’re still going every 1.5 - 2.5 hours, even at nights as it’s the only thing that gets him back to sleep. Anyone else in the same boat?

At night I probably feed him to sleep from 7/7:30pm to 6:30am in the morning 8/9 times

I need to get him im tired 😩

Roughly every 30mins through the day, it's like I've starved him when he wakes from a nap the when he claws my top screaming before latching on a sucking for dear life 😂 but then will go all night with just one feed, occasionally 2 but that's rare

Oh wow, this has made me feels loads better! Although it sucks it’s really nice to know its not just us x

@Kirsty definitely not alone. A few come on to say how their LO sleeps through the night or every 4 hours or more during the day, that the vast majority of us mums who feel as though baby is permanently feeding and rarely sleeping say nothing. I think believing they are alone but I think in the majority 🤷‍♀️ I say, enjoy the close bonds and cuddles whilst you can. 💜

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?

Hour night wakes and 5am get up

Can anyone shed some light as to why on earth my child doesn’t want to sleep??? My eyeballs are bleeding!!

Never been a good sleeper, but the problems always changing. He’s nearly 9 months old.

Beginning of the month he dropped to 2 naps. We could put him to bed at 7pm and he’d get up for the day at 6am, with multiple wake ups every 2/3 hours.

Now we put him down at 7pm, he can do a good 4/5 hour stretch, but come 1/2am he’s up every hour then getting up for the day at 5am. This then completely messes up the day because I can’t keep him awake long enough to even get to 7pm, let alone later.

He has 2 naps, roughly about 1hr10 each but it changed based on when he wakes and trying to get him to a reasonable bed time.

What could be the reason for this? 6am is fine, but 5am is not 😩😩

Crying during feeding

Hey mams! My girl is 6 weeks on Monday and is having so much trouble with feeding. It doesn’t happen every feed but more often than not she will start a bottle and just start crying as if she’s in pain and she can’t take the milk. I think it’s trapped wind but I genuinely don’t know what to do it’s so pitiful to see her not be able to feed! She’s formula fed and on HiPP Organic.
Anyone else been in this position? I’m pretty sure it’s just a bit of trapped wind that she needs to fart out but can’t! If anyone has any advice I’d be very grateful as I think I may need to tape my eyelids open soon 😂

No more naps! 10 month old

For a few days now my 10m old has fought her 2 daily naps. Normally her wake windows were 3-4 hours and she is now eventually napping after a 6 hour wake window. Today was only one nap, she skipped the second one. Used to nap like clockwork so I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Also very unsettled most nights and doesn’t sleep well at all
