So sleep deprived

Nope! My baby will be 1 at the end of the month and I think he’s slept more than 4 hours in an overnight stretch less than 5 times. He’s also a breastfed baby and I’ve noticed that on some nights I can get away with cuddling him back to sleep but usually just nurse him to avoid being up for hours
My 1 year old still wakes to nurse. I've tried to sooth him without nursing, but he just gets more fully awake and pissed. 😕
My baby does the same. Only goes back to sleep faster and easier since we started cosleeping
It's definitely not just him! My son was sleeping with one wake but then we had to switch to hypoallergenic formula and now he's up at least 2-3 times most nights and only his back to sleep with a bottle. Then there's nights like this past one where we're up every hour.
My son doesn’t sleep through the night😭 he still wakes up every 2-3 hrs. I have tension headaches almost every single day. You’re not alone 😭
My son does this too. We nurse to sleep for naps and bedtime still, and he’ll initially go down into his crib but after his first wake up he’s in bed with us and will wake up multiple times a night to comfort nurse and settle back to sleep. It’s tough because I haven’t gotten more than 2 hours of straight sleep for months now. I’ve been thinking about trying to stop night time nursing because I don’t think he’s hungry, just calling out out of force of habit - but haven’t started weaning yet 🫠
@Danielle you should look into Jay Gordon’s night weaning method!! We started this week and my son had a 5 hr sleep stretch!!
My daughter wakes 5-6 times a night and I have to nurse her back to sleep still. This is every night and used to be 10+ times a night until about a month ago
