DS is 6 months and won't settle without bf. He still feeds alot in the day, and at least 5 times overnight. I have started him on solids - he loves them and is starting to fill out. BUT I am at the end of my tether. The only time he sleeps is while feeding, or at night when he zonks out feeding.
I've ended up with him in my bed permanently just to get some rest - but it's still a nightmare ecery night. Tried a small bottle of formula last night (4oz). He slept 3.5 hours (a lot longer than normal) but was then up screaming the rest of the night with wind and I think a sore tummy.
I'm shattered and my parenting skills with my other children are stretched, to say the least. Not to mention my relationship with dh 
Thinking of a dummy now - but surely that's a bitr mad to introduce at 6 months when that's when you should be thinking about taking it away!
