.. and it's absolutely killing me!!
He'd been going 7pm 'til 5am for a couple of months, then just before the summer hols started waking every 2 hours and absolutely guzzling from me, so he was hungry. Last night it was more of a comfort feed and seemed to last pretty much all night.
He's on three full meals a day (1 weetabx or equivalent volume of baby breakfast, 1 jar of 7 month+ food or same volume of home made food plus fruit and/or fromage frais for lunch and same volume of savoury/pud again for dinner). He's a big lad (weighs about 24lbs and is in 12 month clothes and 12-18 months 'shoes').
I can't keep doing this as I have to get up at 6ish and then do a 2 hour drive, so need to be alert and not half asleep. It's also giving me really bad headaches where I really think I'm going to be sick. I have two other kids as well.
I've bought Hipp Organic Night-time milk in desperation, wanted to bf until 12 months but I have to survive at the end of the day!
Anyone else experienced and solved a similar problem. Anyone tried the night-time milk with success? I will keep bf and if the night-time milk works will use that too as it's only one feed a day.
My son sleeps in a crib next to our bed, he used to co-sleep but wanted to suckle all night and I can't sleep like that .
Any advice gratefully received please
