Cluster feeding? Baby not sleeping

Have you tried swaddling her overnight? Have you also tried introducing a dummy to see if she’s just feeding for comfort rather than hunger?

My baby always falls asleep on the boob and is exclusively breastfed, sometimes I’m up every hour with him feeding. Grunting/crying could be that they’re settled and asleep but we think they’re awake and so we pick them up and feed- is she definitely awake when you get her out of the next to me?

Honestly mine is the same, the amount of grunting he did last night/this morning- he was fast asleep I was not as I was worrying something was wrong. They definitely know when they’ve been put down don’t they 🙈😂

The love to dream swaddles saved us! She sleeps soundly in them where as before she was just sleeping on one of us and I was pumping them we were doing shifts of who was awake with her!

No tips for getting baby to sleep in their next to me as my little boy does not do that so we've had to embrace co sleeping again (second baby). But in terms of staying awake during a feed, I tickle his feet, quickly rub his head, talk to him etc. Also doing a nappy change once he's fed on one side helps to wake him for the next side. It's so tough though!!

I’m exactly on the same boat. My baby is 10 days old and can only sleep on my arm or she fall asleep in the morning after 6 am in the next to me 🥹😭 I don’t know what to do anymore 😞
