Baby won’t let go of nipple
Hi ladies,
My baby depends on my breast to sleep, which ok, you could say ‘hooray for booby power!’ BUT even while sleeping he still suckles away and when I remove my nipple he wakes up and goes crazy looking for it again. If he doesn’t get it he’ll cry and wake himself up fully.
Any recommendations on how to tame this ‘obsession’, or is it normal? He won’t accept a pacifier... and now at almost 4 months his sleep cycles are totally messed up so he is literally on my boob all the time cos even if he does let go after 30 mins asleep, he is waking up every 45 mins/hour and then he needs it to go back to sleep again. It’s starting to hurt! TIA!
