She wakes within half an hour of me coming into the bedroom (can't move her out until September or she will be in with Flameboy which will NOT be safe).
She will not settle until I feed her, then she stirs as soon as I put her back in the cot.
Co-sleeping is lovely, but it is nearly 8 months of this, and I (and my nipples) are fed up. (She can't be bothered to roll to latch on so just grabs a handful of nipple and yanks it to her mouth ).
I tried for an hour to settle her last night without feeding. Singing to her calms her and she will lay with her thumb in, but as soon as I dare to stop, she hollers again. She is exhausted when she is awake at night, you can see that, but so long of feeding to sleep has messed her up .
She does it for DH at weekends too (bottles). If she were awake in the daytime she would not need feeding that much, so I am not convinced she is hungry (she eats everything in sight too).
HELP!
