Well I am still hanging in here - bfing ds2 (age 8 weeks tomorrow). Last night he fed all night. I swapped sides every half hour to 45mins as I would get uncomfortable. He didn't settle at all between times, and lay there kicking me, which was really quite mean I thought!
The night before he was a love - fed (I think) 3 times and then slept inbetween times. I say "think" because we are co-sleeping and sometimes he attaches himself!
I am sure last night was often comfort sucking but it still meant I got very very little sleep. Today he has been feeding a lot (usually will go 2 hours, today probably longest has been 1.5hrs)
I just feel knackered. Nearly gave in this afternoon and gave some ff but in the end took him out in the car and bought a wilkinet!
If anyone says this is a growth spurt I may get violent - because that is what i have been told about his feeding patterns every couple of weeks since he was born (and he hasn't put on a huge amount of weight either!!)
So - summing it all up - I am just after some moral support to keep going. I know this will get easier - it just seems a long way off at the moment. Also wondering whether to splash out on an amby natures nest for bed - he hates his crib, (which I can sort of understand when the alternative is nice and cosy and near the all night buffet) but I really really don't like co-sleeping with him - especially when he kicks me all night.
Sorry to ramble on.
