DS is 5 months old next week & for past 2 weeks has been waking up every 1.5hrs (or less) I've been breast feeding him back to sleep then trying to get some sleep myself before the whole cycle starts again & I am beyond exhausted.
Past few nights out of sheer desperation I've brought him into bed with me & DH & he settles down but wants to breastfeed constantly, I've now got an extremely sore neck & can hardly turn my head to the left from co-sleeping but I did get slightly more sleep.
My question is does this sound like sleep regression? How much longer will this last? If I co-sleep just for now until regression is over will he be used to it & never sleep alone?
I'm an emotional wreck due to lack of sleep & can't parent him & 3yo DD very welI today bcos I'm just so drained. Also I feel like I've brought this on myself by feeding to sleep until now but I've never been able to get him to sleep any other way!!
