Breastfed baby

B

Anyone else’s 8month olds waking a crazy amount of times during the night to comfort feed ?!

My girl literally wakes every 1/2 hrs just to latch and suck it’s driving me nuts I’m so tired 😂😂

Please tell me this is a regression I had weaned my son around this time because he did something similar and I just thought my milk wasn’t enough for him however I for sure know my daughter is getting more than enough milk and food during the day

I’ve tried giving formula before bed to see if that will keep her fuller for longer but nope doesn’t work this has only just started happening recently maybe the past week or two.

Girlllll, my baby is 11months now and not sleeping well too. Also wakes 1 to 2 hours and has been like that since age 4months. Im a zombie at work!I fell in post partum depression due to sleep deprivation. I take it day by day some night are better and most nights are not. Ive tried bathing her in eucalyptus lavender oil etc, nothing. She has alot of hair on her head so i tie it sometimes thinking maybe her hair bothers her at night, but nope.A good night would be her waking every 2 hours.You not alone mommy, big hug!

My baby does this some nights. He’s 8 months and some nights he wakes up like once an hour just to suck a little and fall asleep. Obviously he does this more and he’s going through a growth spurt or is sick.
