My 9 mth old slept ok until we went away and he got teeth. Since then he doesn't sleep more than 3 hrs at a time. He doesn't bf during the day but eats very well and shows no interest in the breast, which is fine as I'm back at work. I bf at bedtime (7pm), but then wakes up every 2.5/3hrs - it's not hunger more comfort, but it's killing me what with two other children and working. Whenever DH gives him a cuddle he settles okay, but when I pick him up/he sees me he lunges for the breast and screams until he gets fed - once for over an hour. Any tips what I can do to get to sleep through - he has a dummy and regular routine. Tempted to give up breast feeding so at least he won't lunge at me during the night! Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
