3 hrs sleep in 24 hours

[PatientlyWaiting21]

Tell me it gets better!!!??

My 4 week old has reflux, she started gaviscon and seemed much more settled, no crying in pain, great…

She will only sleep on us, if not on us she needs a pacifier which falls out all the time and needs put back in. So tonight it’s been two hours of doing that (cries when I don’t put it back), then ut was fine for middle of night feed, due to reflux this takes over an hour, settling time another hour, more crying due to lack of pacifier, more time on my chest, and now here we are at 6.15am, myself and partner been up since midnight.

What do we do?!?

It gets better
I thought I would die through lack of sleep when DD was that age. I have no words of wisdom I'm afraid, but i remember how it feels. Don't try and do anything today other than try and catch a bit of sleep if DD does. Do you prop her up when she is lying down to help the reflux?

Do you have anyone who could take her for a walk while you grab a bit of sleep ?
Don’t be worried about leaving her to cry while you grab a quick shower or put the washing on.

Yes her bed is tilted. She’s a different baby compared to last three nights in regards to reflux issues, but just kept me up all night with other antics.

Plans have been cancelled today that’s for sure!
