Hi guys, really need some advice.
In a FTM with a 10 week old baby. Her sleep is awful. At the moment she has a cold and suspected silent reflux. She had a TT diagnosed late which was cut a week ago. She had her first jabs a few days ago. So a lot going on! We have tried gavisgon which was prescribed buy the GP but it made her more uncomfortable and a pain to give as I'm EBF. At night she tends to have a nap untill 5/6 then is really unsettled and cried all evening. We give her two feeds one usually around 7 and one at 9 and she often then falls asleep and we transfer her to the side cot. Now what happens next is very variable. She has at times done 4 hours but lately she just wakes very soon after and won't go back in. I then chuck my partner out of bed and co sleep which I hate doing. I then feed often to resettle her but often lying down and I think this might then make the reflux worse... I'm barely sleeping and I thought things would be easier by now. I'm not expecting sleeping through by any means but just staying in the cot all night with a few feeds. I actually don't mind waking up to feed and find it quite magical but at the moment it's just not working! Should I stop feeding to sleep? Should I try and put her down earlier? Any tips on a coldy refluxy baby?
