Just wanted to send some {{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}

I thought i would just let you know that my lo got much better after the 9 week stage. I think my supply was always trying to catch up with DS.

What are your daytime feeds like? I found that if i feed more in the day the nights were much better.

Have you tried cluster feeding before bed, too?

That sounds like overtiredness.  How is she napping?

Hugs!  What is happening with her naps?  Can you give us an example of what a recent day has looked like for you?

My little one began sleeping through 7 til 7 from about 3 1/2 months and continues to do now, she is nearly 6 months old. She is ebf feeding at 7, 11, 3, 6:30 and df at 10:30. I think it is an individual thing some babies can sleep through very early on, a friend of mine's was sleeping through at 6 weeks (wow) another i know is 10 months and still waking through the night

Good luck, I hope she goes back to sleeping through for you on bm only  :)
