Looking for some help! My LO has been EBF since birth and has co-slept since around 4 weeks. She does, however, go into her own cot for the first 3 hours of the night and then comes in with us because I’ve always struggled getting up for night feeds and it was easier just sticking her on the boob in bed. She would usually have maybe 3 feeds per night doing it this way. Recently she’s been waking every hour when she comes in with us and is only settling when she’s fed. She tends to sleep for the 3 hours straight in her own cot. She has a dummy but spits it out and searches for the boob whenever she’s in with us. She has got some teeth coming through on the top and so I’m not sure if it’s related to that? Or whether she’s able to smell the milk and that’s why she’s doing it but it seems strange the sudden change? I’m due to go back to work in 6 weeks and I’m stressed that I’m SO tired at the minute due to the amount of night wakings! It’s been going on for about a week now! Sorry for the rambling but can anyone give any advice or reassurance to a tired, stressed out mama😭
