Hi.
I'm new to mnet. Could do with some advice/shared experiences.
My DS is ebf and just over 5 months, since about 19 weeks his night feeds have increased to every 1.5hrs-2hrs some times less.
I originally put it down to growth spurt/sleep regression, but it has not ended! He does seem genuinely hungry at night, and we have tried to settle him without milk but he just screams!
I love breastfeeding and don't want to give up but at the moment am so exhausted I can't cope. I'm also worrying about it so much I can't sleep between feeds.
Co-sleeping is not an option due to lack of space.
I keep being told, it will pass but it's not!
What are other people's experiences at this age?
Thanks
