i am glad i am able to comfort feed my baby when i know he needs it. only last night ds2 woke up at 11pm after going to bed at 7.30pm. i chose to comfort feed him to help him back to sleep. he would usually sleep a lot longer and not wake for a feed until 2, 3 or 4am, but in this case he was clearly uncomfortable and something was bothering him. i offered him a comfort suckle and he was back in dreamland in minutes. i certainly prefer to do this than leave him to cry/whine it out.
