This thread has come at a good time for me - DD has gone from sleeping 6-8 hrs straight at night to doing 3-4 hrs - yep, I know that is still GREAT but I was starting to struggle (I am one of those people who prior to having a baby did not function on less than 9 hours straight sleep - ha ha), to wonder what I was doing 'wrong', how could I change her back etc etc.

Now I realise that she is just a hungry little bubba and she needs a feed more often, and that is perfectly ok. She is the most amazing thing in the world to me and we are so lucky to have even been blessed with her in the first place - this is what I will be focussing on during those tough night feeds.

But yes, it does annoy me that sleep is the major talking point for people about your baby! And as I have been complaining a bit about being tired lately, DH keeps saying "Well you know how to fix it, put her on formula" - like that would be some 'magical sleep potion'. Ugh.
