The best thing that worked for me was that I stopped bringing her onto the bed to feed her as she used to fall asleep and then would be annoyed when she woke up in her cot. I now cradle her (more tiring for me but it has halved wake ups as I think it keeps her more awake) while I feed her and then she is kinda half asleep/almost asleep when I put her down. Is that just a habit? If so, was the habit driven by an underlying digestive issue, like reflux, that your baby may have had? That’s the big question.

In desperation to get more sleep I got this book out the library. I have never read such an anti- bf book ever. It makes BW look spot-on! yes i thought very anti-bfing makes GF look very pro! however we did use some of the ideas in the book, and he was sleeping all night by 8 weeks. This is why I formula fed - so dh could share the care. I don’t think I could feed every 2 hours every night, that sounds utterly exhausting and soul destroying.
