Help! I've just joined having read loads of discussions about breastfeeding, sleep etc. My DD is 14 weeks old and I'm starting to pull my hair out. She feeds every 2-3 hours in the day (fine!) but also at night and I'm exhausted....she won't take a bottle at all. She has only ever fed for max 10 mins at a time and has seemed happy until the last week or so, HV says she is not latching on properly but she's doing it the way she has always done it and has been fine until now. She gets grumpy with me if I interfere.
She was born on 91st centile and is now on 75th, not worried about that particularly as she is active and alert and happy most of the time. DS who is 2 and a half was also on 91st at birth and gradually dropped until I started him on solids, he is now on 50th, eats like a horse, so is she just doing the same?
Could do with some help and thoughts on if I'm doing it right, how to get her to take a bottle and how I can get her to sleep for longer at night before I go completeley mad and turn into a screaming monster!
