DS has been feeding continuously since 7pm

[ilovemydog]

Any bets on when he'll finish?

Midnight?

Poor you, hope it's not too long. I remember getting a 'numb bum' from sitting from 6.30 till 9ish, but never had to go on this long. Hope he'll sleep for you once he's finished.

Wow, how old is he? My DS did cluster feeding most evenings until he was about 4 months.

Wow! My bet...about 5 minutes after you've fallen asleep.

9 months He started doing the bionic cluster feeding about a week ago again. I don't know why. Just sort of going with the flow....

tis the best way ilovemydog...

No need for my DS is 1 and still has his milk-marathon moments but usually when he is feeling yuk. Hope he is ok and hope you get a break soon .

Mine did 8pm to 1am the other day, then after a short nap, 2.30am to 4am... phew!

Just looking for reassurance, really - my DD is 9 weeks old and though it's been a rocky old time, I am starting to find my feet, I think. But she cries so much. She will happily watch her musical mobile go round or play on her baby gym for maybe 10 mins at a time, or if we are out she'll watch people for a while, but then she'll always start to cry and is difficult to soothe any other way than to get her to sleep (in my arms/the sling/driving around in the car). Forget putting her down anywhere other than the aforementioned playmat. It's not just that she wants cuddles - she does, but often even when I or DH are cuddling her she's still upset, sometimes hysterical. Is it (I know there's not really any such thing) for her to cry so much? I know she's too little to be sad (she doesn't know such emotions exist) but it feels awful that she seems so upset so often, even when she's not hungry or tired or cold, and her nappy is clean. I know babies cry, that's what they do, but... And it's not a colic problem, though she does do the screaming in the evening thing sometimes too. But in a way that's easier to deal with, since it's such a commonly recognised problem and I can tell myself that it should pass in a month or two. General daytime misery, though, seems less common, or less commonly discussed.
