ARGH! I have to rant a bit! Alex keeps waking up at night looking like he wants to be fed, but he just sucks for a couple minutes and falls back asleep again. I thought it might be he just wants comfort so I tried just cuddling him or shushing him, but he cries until I put him on the breast! It's draining for me because it's becoming every hour. He's not feeding as much during the day and will make feeding cues, but when I put him on the breast, he pulls off and smiles at me. I've tried winding him in all positions, but nothing comes out. I'm honestly at my wits end here. He won't feed first thing in the morning when he wakes up anymore so my breasts are very sore and I end up pumping off milk to relieve the pressure. It's nice to build up a supply, but sometimes I just can't be bothered! Is this normal around 3 months to start this? It's been going on for a couple weeks now. I'm so so so exhausted! Adding vaccines into the mix didn't help either! :cry:
 
Sounds like he's becoming more aware of his surroundings! When my LO started doing this (around 3-4 months), I had to start feeding her in my bedroom laying down... just to minimized the distractions. HTH :flower:
 
Argh, lol! Poor kid. :( He's getting so exhausted with all the stuff around him. I noticed he's been sleeping more too.
