Hi, Babyluv,

What you have there seems to be a fabulously well adjusted human baby. For 9 months she lived *inside your body*. that was a habit of a lifetime - continually fed, always cuddled and never lonely, hearing their mother's heartbeat and their voice etc. Then they are born and our culture demands they sleep alone, in their bed for long hours at a time. No self respecting baby will want that. She's not starving - but she wants to be connected to you - and any baby knows that when your nipple is in her mouth - she has that connection she's had for a lifetime.
I'm wondering, do you generally fall out of bed? What about your partner? Most of us, even though we are dog tired and sleeping like a log are aware enough to know where the edge of the bed is. Likewise with your baby. Parents that don't drink, smoke or take drugs are safe to sleep with their baby - and indeed, that's the way most of us survive these tough early days. Your LC has made a great suggestion.
Re the ergo, loosen the straps so she drops to nipple height, or lift your breast us, cup it with your hand. It takes a bit of practise, but you will get there - a bit of a dance, or sway with your baby will soothe her to sleep
