My 14 month old daughter is using my breasts almost like a human pacifier. Its just started a week ago - all night she will "breast feed" (I barely make any milk), and will cry until screaming if I take her off the boob. Weirdly, this only starts from midnight - at bedtime, she goes to sleep breastfeeding and I then take her off and transfer her to her cot.
She has no cuddly toy, no dummy, and doesn't take milk bottles. Any advice please about how to break this pattern? I'm so exhausted because of course it wakes me up the whole night!
I can't bear the thought of experimenting in the middle of the night with different approaches, but is that the only way?
