I love feeding my daughter and don't want to stop but am completely exhausted after EBF for five months. I am dying for a few hours off or more than just a few hours sleep at a time as I feel like I'm running in empty. I have always fed on demand but my daughter is still waking every three to four hours most nights and I am now unsure if it is due to being hungry or just because she needs feeding. I'm just wondering if any of you have any tips as all of my friends are either breast feeding younger babies or formula feeding so I don't have anyone to talk it over with. These last few weeks I have really felt like the night feeds have taken their toll and I am getting lots of headaches and feel really run down. I think I've probably been eating too much cake and not paying enough attention to my diet due to bring tired and busy which I'm sure isn't helping either. Any advice really welcomed thanks for reading x
