Have not fed him at night for 2 weeks now, but he just will not give in. Decided to do it because he was still waking for milk each night, but at least then he would breastfeed and go straight back to sleep!
Now he wakes at 12.45, comes into our bed and moans a little bit, but largely accepts the deal and goes back to sleep. He then wakes at 4 and screams non-stop for a solid hour until I feed him at 5, having decided this would be an acceptable time to wake up (I wish).
The lack of sleep is kiling me - I am a full time primary teacher - and I don't know how long I can keep this up. He won't accept dh going in to him at all, which is how we got to this position. I really don't want to leave him in his cot to cry - anyone got any suggestions please?
