thanks for your advice guys
she WAS sleeping from 10.30pm until at least 5am, sometimes 6,7 or 8am just a few weeks ago (and this was breast feeding too), but now she is waking at four hourly intervals, i just don't get it.
Even when I do the sleepy feed at 10.30pm, where I just feed her practicially in her sleep, she still wakes at 1am for a feed. I just don't get it. I have bought some different teats today (faster flowing) hoping that she will take more milk during the day, as she only takes about 90mls per feed, which just doesn't seem to be enough, especially when she does giant spews a lot of the time.
With regards to the dummy, I am interested in weaning her off this, if it could be done without too much upset, as I don't want to rock the boat too much at the moment because her sleep is so off. Its been about 2 weeks now, I guess I can't keep blaming it on a growth spurt.
She does sometimes sleep well during the day. She tries to wake up after 45 minutes, but if i get her back to sleep she can sometimes last 3 hours (not often) but more often than not around an hour or maybe sometimes two hours.
last night it took an hour to actually get her to sleep at about 10.30pm she dropped off, woke at 2am for a feed, then 6am and was up for the day. Have only just managed to get her back down for a nap at 10.30am. She just fights sleep.
