Hi
I usually don't worry too much about EASY in the early days, but this little might has got me baffled.
I know newborns are notoriously unsettled in the evenings, but this guy is doing my head in already. Firstly, it's driving me crazy, and secondly I'm worried about accidental parenting because I'm either having to rock him or feed him to sleep, especially in the feral evenings.
All day he naps well. If he wakes early from a nap, I can usually resettle in the cot, but in the evenings I can't. From 5pm-11pm, he feeds often which I'm fine with, but will only ever nap for about 10mins at a time. By 11pm, I'm so exhausted, I bring him to bed with me and feed him to sleep and cosleep for a while to get him to sleep deeper and longer.
Have you got any suggestions on making our evenings less painful? Go with it? fight it? I'm exhausted and frustrated!
