It's the first time we try for a DF we never actually needed it with the other 2! I am just desperate for a little sleep right now, I need to at least tweak the timing of her NF's because the way it is right now is exhausting. I can't really get to bed before 9:30 because I need to pump after she is in bed. Then I Wake at 2:15 with her and am up for about 1h. Then she wakes 3h later so around 5:15, I feed her and put her back to bed, but then before I fall asleep the big kids get up. During the summer I could stay in bed a little bit while DH took care of the kids but with school I can't do that anymore, and this is definitely not enough sleep for me. So I am ok with 2 NF's I know it can be normal, but I do need them to be on a different Schedule, kwim?
So, last night, DH did the DF but was not able to burp her. She woke at her usual 2:15 and she wasn't really hungry, but she was very squirmy, I guess she was gassy. It took a while to get her back to sleep (I fed her but she did not take a lot) but then she slept until 7:15 so I still felt rested. I wouldn't mind the 2AM feed if there wasn't one coming at 5AM as well.
Yes, I feed her when she wakes. I know I probably shouldn't but I didn't really give it some thought before last night, it was the first time I realized she was not hungry when I was feeding her. Usually (before the DF) she was definitely hungry at both feeds. So if it happens again, I was thinking of sending DH to resettle her next time? Although it is difficult I find at that age to be sure that she is not hungry. If it is 4h after the DF, she could possibly be hungry, right?
Would W2S be an option to try you think?
