As title says- I'm fine during the day, my dd will ask but I can distract her quite easily! It's at night! First of all I breastfeed her to sleep, then she wakes about 3 times in the night and then about 6.30am and wants to feed till 8am.
If I don't feed her she'll scream the house down! It's unbearable so I just end up feeding her! She still has her cot in our room and ends up sleeping in our bed from about midnight onwards.
Now that I'm pregnant I want to stop breastfeeding and I would love my dd to sttn- she's a great eater so I know her wakenings are not from hunger, more just comfort.
Any advice is much appreciated- this is getting me so down and frustrated- my nipples are so sensitive and I can't sleep when I'm feeding so I'm knackered as it is and still have to wake up and lie awake while dd feeds and falls asleep!
It's totally my fault for getting into bad habits and I fear the only method would be to let dd cry it out? I don't think I could manage this.
