Hello
I've posted what seems like an essay on the sleep board about my lo and her lack of sleep and routine. I am going to embark on the easy plan on Tuesday, hopefully, but need to bail my plan down first.
I use nipple shields as lo never latched properly. She was going 6-7 hrs at night with one feed at 2.30/3am and then up at 06.30/7. However, since March she's been waking every 2-3 hrs and only feeding will settle her back to sleep. I know most if this is habit, but she does seem to be feeding a lot- for a good 10 mins 3 X per night, at 23:00, 2.30/3 and 05.00/0530 I can hear her swallowing. Tried dummy but she just screams..
My question is how do I make sure she's getting her feeds during daylight hrs? I don't want to do pu/pd if she's genuinly hungry. We're baby led weaning, which she seems to love, and I know she's eating from her nappies. I always offer the boob before food, and after to make sure she's getting her milk.
Any advice would e appreciated!
