Hi girls,

Please don't shoot me for this post.

A bit of background... I couldn't feed ds1 due to his tongue tie and my cracked nipples etc... we tried everything under the sun and nothing worked. I expressed until about 2-3mts then after that he was on formula.

Anyway... this time has been a different story, ds2 took to the boob like a champion. This is great, I was over the moon, the proudest mum in the planet.... until now.

I love him, I love the fact that I can feed him, but I need a break!!! I'm soooo tired, just exhausted! I feel soooo guilty saying that coz he sleeps all night but he's awake ALL day! Give or take 1 or 2 20min naps here and there. I know I should be grateful I have a baby who sleeps all night and is easy to feed but I just don't at the moment. I've been in tears on and off the last 2 days, I'm a fairly social person but I crave my own space and company. One of my favourite things to do was to go sit in a coffee shop on my own for an hour or two. Now, I know I can still do this but I'm time restricted which means I don't relax and all I do is think about ds2. I've tried the bottle with EBM and formula and he won't take either, I've also tried a bunch of diff bottles and teats. He takes a dummy fine just not a bottle.

Will this feeling pass? Did anyone else feel like this or am I just an ungrateful freak?
