Anyone else?

LO is 11 weeks. She sleeps well in her next to me crib for the first part of the night eg 8:30pm-1am but 1am onwards she feeds frequently (or just uses me as a human dummy), and hates being put down in her next to me crib. So I find myself having to nurse her pretty much all the time to soothe her. She won’t take a dummy which is frustrating because I know this could help her. Is anyone else in a similar situation or know what I can do to help? I’m worried that she’ll always be a bad sleeper and rely on me (breast) to comfort her.

My little boy is bottle fed and was the same (starting to get slightly better now at 12 weeks) but he had silent reflux which was causing him discomfort so he wanted to be held, fed etc. He was waking around that time but now it is around 4.30. xx

I think this is quite normal, from what I hear babies will sleep well in the first chunk of the night, but then struggle with the rest. We had and in a way still have the same with our LO. EBF. And I totally get the human dummy! She finally got better at sleeping around 11 weeks.

Same here at 11 weeks, I think it's very normal from others I've spoken to x
