As above really! We're exhausted baby, me and bf. Baby 5 month tomorrow. Sleeps in side sleeping crib next to us. He'l only go to sleep and up to bed once I have got him to sleep cuddled in and in a deep sleep. Good bedtime routine, used to sleep 7-5am. Last few weeks have gone really iffy waking during the night tossing and turning so to speak. Put the dummy in...his hands find it...messes about wanting to put it in n take it out himself but he can't do this yet, OR the dummy falls out. In out in out in out ALL night. I feel sorry for him as well because you can see he just wants to sleep but can't for the dummy. Iv tried going cold turkey but then I feel guilty he's so little and just wants a bit comfort and I'd rather that than his fingers or thumb (he's a very sucky baby) . I'm not well myself a.t.m really run down lethargic full of cold etc on top of being shattered I'm drained! Been up 6 times in the last half hour to put the dummy back in...oh and he's started thinking his day starts at around 3,30 -4.30 now as well.
I think I just need some reassurance or advice or anything really. Yes he's my first baby ha.
