I have co-slept with my LO since he came home from hospital and I love doing it. But he sleeps awful, I feed him to sleep at 7 or 8ish and then sneak away. He then sleeps till about 11.30. But once I go to bed he is up wanting boob every 30 mins- 1hour I just latch him on and go back to sleep and he sucks for like 5 minutes and then he's back to sleep. But beinf woken up so often is killing me, im never in a deep sleep and im really starting to struggle. In the day I pat/shhh him to sleep on our bed, or he sleeps in the car or buggy. If I try pat/shhh at night he gets hysterical until I give him boob. Last night I tried to get him down in his basket. I fed him till he was sleepy, then put him in the basket with white noise going. He immediately started screaming, I patted and shhh'd for and half hour, picking up and cuddling every time he got really upset (I never left him). He screamed hysterically, he finally nodded off, only to wake up tens mins later and I couldnt calm him at all, so I fed him and he was asleep in seconds. I cant do it, I cant let him cry like that again! But I need more sleep, any advice greatly received!! xxxx
