Sleep deprived and hating motherhood right now

[Mombie26]

DD is 7 months. It’s been 7 months of getting up several times a night to BF. I’m getting so tired from the broken sleep that I feel like I’m not actually me anymore, I’m on autopilot. The worst part of it all is thinking “ffs just fucken sleep” when you hear your baby crying and not actually getting the butterflies and fairytale feeling that you thought you would when you’re holding your baby close to BF for the sixth time that night I can’t help but wonder when this is going to end! Anyone else got this going on for them too? I’d really like to know I’m not alone even though it’s a horrible thing to be going through.

Can't you just cosleep? I sleptwhilst mine fed. Was the way I got theough. However my 11 month old bf baby slept through from 2 weeks old so never had a problem with her. But I use to do it with my older 3.

Thanks prettylittlething I have DD in my bed pretty much all night now but can’t sleep while breastfeed because I feel so uncomfortable in any position. I’ll try again though and I’ll see how it works.
