Hi, I am finding it really difficult at the moment with my lil boy. I seem to have one good day then one bad day- but the bad days are getting worse!!!! He goes through really wakeful periods where he just won't fall asleep- today he was awake from 6am to 2.00pm- then he completely crashes out. I know he is obviously getting overtired but car trips or walks in the pram only lead to about 20 mins of sleep time once we are home. He is just so unsettled. I offer the breast- he sucks for about 10 mins & he gets sleepy but then wide awake again. I don't think it is wind but have given him Infants Friend. Today he fed at 5.15am, 8.15am, 9.15am, 11.00am, & 1.00pm - but some of them were not full feeds- just snacks which I know is bad!!!! Of course it is bliss when he finally zonks it but then I get very fearful as I know it's going to be soooo bad at night. Do I have enough milk??????? Is this normal behaviour???????? Today when the midwife visited I was bawling my eyes out so now am being referred to a mental health nurse. I just hate that he is crying so much and I can't seem to settle him. Any suggestions???????
