Hi, I am just a bit desperate and writing on here just incase anyone has some good advice for me. I have a 9mo who wakes on average about 6 times a night. I have co-slept and bf to sleep from the beginning. Now I am so sleep-deprived I can't think and get exhausted just doing the shopping. I need to go back to work in 3months and I don't want to try to do it in this state. I still wouldn't do cc - so I got the No cry sleep solution and have been doing the Pantly Pull Off. Now he CAN go to sleep just sleepy from the breast and in his cot at the beginning of the night, but he STILL wakes up all through the night and insists of bf to go back to sleep. (I tried keeping him in the cot once we went to bed but he wouldn't settle for 3 hours - I tried this for 3 nights, and gave up and took him into bed with us) I think I have to just stop bf-ing to sleep but I can't seem to find the energy to keep myself awake and do some hard nights - but thats probably what I need. I'm feeling trapped and stuck! The worst thing is I get angry with my lo. Apologies for sounding completely hopeless but if you have been where I am and got out I would love to hear from you! Thanks!
