Help -- baby wants to nurse all night , mama is going crazy!
Hi Ladies, looking for advice here. My LO is 2 weeks and gaining weight well, if not ahead of schedule. However, I feel like I'm loosing my sanity ( exhaustion, tiffs with husband, emotions) for lack of sleep. Babe sleeps for one 2 hour stretch and then alternates the next 7 hours between feeding for an hour and sleeping for an hour... I'm wondering if we should try a pacifier, but don't know if this would help and don't want to cause nipple confusion because we are EBF. Have also considered pumping so my husband and I can alternate but the lactation consultant strongly urged against...
Other things we do are swaddling her in a sleep sack, naps no longer than 2hrs a day, loud white rumble noise.
Thanks for your help!!
