For the past couple of days my three week old has been cluster feeding and after feeding she stays up for about an hour and during this time I can’t put her down without her crying. When she does go to sleep I have to hold her for another 30-40 minutes so she can be in a deep sleep before putting her down, or she’ll wake up and scream but she wakes up every 2 hours to eat. I’m exhausted and i find myself waking up with her still in my arms. It scares the crap out of me because if I’m so out of it that I don’t even remember picking her up or going to sleep, i shouldn’t be holding her. Anyone else have this problem or can give me tips?

*my SO goes to work at 3am and helps out a lot with feeding her and what not but after he leaves I’m on my own so I can’t have him wake me up or anything.
