I would just enjoy the rest, first, though others may say that's too long . I was told to feed baby every 3 hours a couple weeks ago, woke him once in the night to stick to this and he wasn't remotely interested in feeding, and screamed til morning to punish us! Let him wake himself up now, though he rarely goes more than 3, sometimes 4 hours in the night.
Having a horrendous night tonight, he refuses to sleep in his bed (sleepyhead pod thing, inside cot, at the end of our bed) so for last few nights husband has slept in spare room whilst I sleep with baby in our bed. I just don't find it that comfortable lying on my side with my arms around him in the supposed safe co-sleeping position, I don't sleep well and feel so sore in the morning. And he's so clingy at the moment anyway most of the night he actually wants to be held so I'm sleeping with him actually in my arms which is even more uncomfortable! (I think it's still safe though, my arm is just under him rather than next to him, we're in the middle of the bed so he can't be dropped anywhere, and I definitely won't roll on him). Anyway this is turning into an epic sleep deprived rant... Tried to coax him back into the sleepyhead tonight, having it next to me on the bed so I'm right there, with a hand on his tummy and he just won't settle. He slept for an hour at the start of the night then screamed and screamed and refused to go back in, spent ages trying to settle him and eventually caved and brought him back into the bed. And he's woken so many times to feed as well.
Am at my wits end. I really don't want to get into a long term habit of him sleeping with me and I don't like having my husband banished to the spare room!
