Do extended bfeeders find that their DCs sleep all night?

[fustilarian]

As the 1st birthday approaches, am mulling over the fact that I haven't had more than about three unbroken nights' sleep since she was born.

We have done so many things to try and encourage her to self settle, and very often she does, but not every time every night.

I leave her standing up in her cot and she says bye bye, I hear her looking at her book in bed and then going off to sleep, then she's up again randomly once, twice, sometimes three times, and up to about six times if she is ill/teething.......DP usually tries to settle her but to no avail, she is dead set on the milk.....

what can I do, if anything?

Right baby DS has fallen asleep on the boob, I'm off to bed

ds1 stopped bfing at about age one, was an awful sleeper till 19 months when the last of that batch of teeth popped.
ds2 slept OK from about 7 months still bfing at 18 months.
In this house it was 1) teething and 2) parental inability to adequately keep children warm at night that have been the problem.
But neither of ours bfed in the night after about 8 months. still blame teething, though.
