Can someone please explain to my dd that the baby book I have says that by 8 weeks (today) she should be sleeping for 5 hour stretches at night? I don't think she got the memo.
Last night the longest stretch of sleep was 2hrs. And she only woke up hungry once (at 2, as she always does). The other times were because she was gassy/constipated/had farted herself awake.
I feel like I'm going round in circles. When first born, she was really gassy so didn't sleep. Then she got reflux. We put her on reflux milk, which helped both problems, but now she's constipated, which again keeps her awake. Am giving her water but this just makes the reflux bad again.
I feel like if we found the magic solution to all these problems then she would sleep beautifully, because she naps well during the day, self settles when content at night and only really needs one night feed.
Just feeling a bit fed up with it all today.
