BF babies and sleeping during feeds?

[Serene123]

Caitlyn falls asleep on my boob almost EVERY feed now? That is the only time she naps during the day.. Not sure whether it's a bad thing..

Yeah Seth does too. I guess you cant really keep them awake. And he falls asleep on his own at night too so its not causing any problems I dont think!

Well I co-sleep and Caitlyn still feeds during the night! Not sure whether the night feeds are just comfort..

 

[Linzi]

Yeah we do too. He starts in his cot but he comes in with me when he first wakes up and then he pretty much comfort feeds when he wakes up through the night which is a really bad habit but tbh most of the time Im half asleep and when I wake up I think "how the hell did he get there?" lol

Harry does this on a couple of his feeds, I just change sides everytime he drifts off until he's had what I think is enough.

I nurse Bren to sleep for every nap and every night and during the night as well. It is my one weakness, and something I don't plan on changing any time soon.

Sam your pic is sooooooooooo cute!!

Sam only ever used to sleep during the day while he was feeding. He'd wake up as soon as I tried to put him down anywhere too. He's got better in the last month or two though - his feeds are SO much quicker (as soon as he's finished he'll sit up and want to play), and he'll have a proper nap twice a day x

during the night he ends up in bed with us at around 4 and then is comfort feeding x

same here i co-sleep and he gets better with sleeping, used to feed almost every hour ( eating machine ) and now i feed 3-4 times a night which is good compare to couple of months ago, and every time i feed he still sleeping and after 10min i just put him back on the bed ( i don't wind him ) but there's no problem for us both.
It might be comfort as well, but i know he';s also hungry

I do exactly the same.... I co-sleep at night and if she wakesI pop my boob in her mouth and she's out again-I figure just a comfort feed... She also falls asleep during her daytime feeds. The only problem I see, is getting her back into her crib whenever I finally get her room set up...

We are about the same as everyone else....she falls asleep on my boob after she eats during the day (naps) and then at night she will fall asleep on my boob and comfort feed throughout the night (if necessary). This is my weakness, also. But I'm a stay at home mom so my life basically revolves around Valerie already..haha!

Jack doesnt really fall asleep when i'm feeding him the only time he does is if i am lying down feeding him, at night he sleeps til about 5then hes in bed with me, he feeds and we fall asleep means i get more sleep and he love being close
