My 5 week old girl is driving me to distraction. She wants to feed constantly all day from when we get up at 9:30. On a particularly busy day she can keep going until bedtime without really being happy to stop for more than 15 minutes tops. She also won't go to sleep during the day. The longest she has slept for in the last few days is an hour yesterday but she can stay awake for hours at a time although she looks shattered! At night she can sleep for a couple of hours but won't settle in her crib again after 6am so comes in the bed with me.
I'm getting pretty desperate at the minute as I have to leave her to scream just so I can go to the loo because she won't let me leave her for even a minute.
Any advice?
