Hello,


hmmm where do I start!!!!
I just can't seem to figure this bub out. She is 9wks and she is still mostly cat napping through the day, and some nights I just can't get her to bed before midnight.

Issues:

I can't work out whether she has colic, is hungry or tired.

One feed just runs into the next with little to no sleep in between. I am concerned that I am feeding her when she is not hungry.

I put her down for a sleep and she sleeps for 20-40mins and wakes up screaming. sucking her fits and is very fidgety.

She will not take the breast at some feeds but she will take a bottle.

She will sleep in a sling but not in her cot. So I walk around with her attached to me all day...my back is killing me.

Some days just seem like a vicious circle of feeding (trying too), burping, crying and cat napping.

Questions:

Is my breast milk making her colicy? Do I have to go on some sort of special diet? My family have a history of food intolerances including lactose.

How long should she be going between breastfeeds?

By now her sister was in a nice little routine and I felt like I had a grip...now I just feel so lost and don't know where to start.
