DD is nearly eight months old and I?ve been back at work since she was six months. All the books I?ve read say that she shouldn?t need feeding at night as she?s now eating three small meals plus formula a day, but I still find myself breastfeeding her at 11ish, 3 or 4am and then again at about 5am or 6am. I admit this might just be my path of least resistance ? we live in a one bedroom flat and I feed her at night whenever she cries, but I?m getting mutterings from friends about ?rod? and ?back?. Should I just think ?this too will pass? or try water/ shush patting etc, etc (although I fear this will make me even more exhausted at work)?.
Wise words most appreciated
