Please tell me this won't last long. :(
He's always been a crap sleeper, waking every hour or two to nurse back to sleep, but usually only a few mins' nursing is enough. More importantly, since he was 11mo he's been happy to sleep beside me, but facing away from each other, not touching.
I am reluctant to move him from my bed or night-wean, and I'm pretty much happy to accept the frequent wakings as a result, but I can't bear the night-long nursing, or the accompanying kicking, squirming, twiddling. The need to bf all night long is reminiscent of his worst teething nights, but I don't think it can be that - he's just finished all his eye teeth and I don't see any other signs that the 2yr molars are on the way already.
I am broken. And irritable. I could cheerfully wrench him limb from limb right now (right now = still effing chewing gently on my nipple).
