DS2 is between 3 and 4 weeks and breastfed. He sleeps for hours in the day (in his bouncy chair/pram if we're out) but is very difficult to settle at night.
Our night feeds/winding/pooing routine is rarely under one hour and often two. Yesterday he wouldn't settle really after 1am and today he's only dozed a bit (in my bed) since 4am. We change/feed/wind etc and then sometimes he poos again so go through the whole thing again.
I can't tell if it's simply that he hates the Moses basket or whether he has bad wind for hours. He gets very gripey in bed and often doesn't really burp. His poos/farts are quite explosive.
Lack of sleep is really making me hate it all at the moment and he must be tired too. Doesn't help that DS2 would go back to sleep around 7am for some hours but that DS1 is usually up for the day around 6-6.20.
How do you keep night feeds short and settle your babies afterwards?
