Hey all,
My DS is 11 months old and we have been trying BLW since he was 6 months. Despite offering him 3 meals a day he barely eats a thing at all. Maybe 1 tiny mouthful all day eventually makes it into his tummy :( he will not accept a spoon at all. I'm still breastfeeding him every 2-3 hours during the day and night...
My problem is this - he sleeps really badly (since he was about 5 months). He falls asleep completely on his own for naps and bedtime, and I always lay him down awake after each night feeding and he settles himself to sleep really well. But he always wakes between 1 and 3 hours throughout the night :( I'm so tired and so sad about it. I wonder if he wakes because he's very hungry so I end up breastfeeding him every waking. Can I expect him to go any longer at night when he doesn't eat during the day? I don't know if it's hunger or habit that causes his night waking and it's making me feel like we failed!
Sorry for very long post. Any advice would be gratefully received! Thanks x
