Horrible sensation during night feeds

[lau86]

All I can say is it's like restless legs but all over my body?? It's so hard not to shake her off me! Like the feeling of her being on me makes me want to shake my arms. I hate it, I never had this with my others. Does anyone know if there's anything I can do to stop it?

Its called feeding aversion. It happens to lots of women but it does pass. I've gone through it twice and it really is awful. Both times ive just used the pump and bottle fed ds then tried feeding again. Only lasted a few days each time xxx

Ah, I've seen people talking about that on here but not really knew what it was. Hopefully it won't last too long!

Yep, nursing aversion. I had it for almost a year and I eventually had to night wean at 2.5 because it got unmanageable. Hopefully just a phase for you though.
