leap 4.. tell me theres an end.. that there actually is alight at the end of this very long and painful tunnel..

im not actually sure how much longer i can dealwith this clingy crying sooking teething bundle of.. joy? seriously i am doing my head in.. throw a very bored and slightly put out 4 year old and my days are just a pile of tears and tantrums.. from everyone (myself included) i thought he was very near the end and the last few days have just been amped up a notch or 2 (hes 24.5 weeks.. its supposed to be over, isnt it?)
and i havent even started on the sleep regression.. i just. i cant. ive been back at work sincehe was 4 months(which actually has been pretty ok, everyone is transitioning nicely, i thought) maybe this is the reason for everything? he wont sleep for any more than 30mins at a time during the day.. and im lucky if he goes down twice.. takes me at least an hour of a night to get him to sleep (he used to go to sleep on the boob. not anymore) and then hes awake within a few hours if not less, which is when i switch beds and lay down and feed him to sleep.. throughout the night we cosleep and he just feeds when he wants it.. i dont know how much longer i can do this..

then theres that.. i have given serious consideration to weaning.. but there is so much pressure to breastfeed.. to continue breastfeeding until well.. when? hes 1? or 2? or starting school?.. im sorry i knowi sound bitter.. theres my own insdie voice peer pressure.. i spent so long beatig myself up because i couldnt/didnt bf my dauhter past 4 months (only ebf her for 2) and now im considering weaning because.. well a couple of things.. work (which is a cop out i guess, becuase its really not that hard, just slightly time consuming) but its mainly the clingyness.. and is he hungry? is that the problem?
i am so scared he is going to stay like this.. i cant put him down for even a minute without him cryng.. nothing is being done.. im becomig this grouchy mumma that everyone is avoiding (husband included) becuase everything is getting ontop of me.. i cant have a sooky baby, DD was never like this (i dont rememeber her being like this anyway..) i dont know how much longer i can do it..
