Sammiejane, Aaron & I were discussing exactly that yesterday, is it better to have her attached for most of the day & actually get sleep at night or have it spread evenly. We think this way is working ok for the moment so we'll stick to doing it how she wants.

Sarah, FWIW, I think that way is better too. That night sleep makes such a difference to you. Especially if bubs is night waking for months at a time! The number of feeds in 24 hours will settle down too, so you won't have a baby on your breast non-stop for 12 months LOL!

This is just all so different than with Zander, he was bottle fed pretty much every four hours & woke overnight several times until he was two and then at least once a night until he was around three. It's all very weird.

My boys were/are chalk and cheese too Sarah. One slept through from 6 weeks, the other from 12 months (and he is now the better sleeper of the two by far, go figure!!). It came as a huge shock to me to find out how different T is to J. I wasn't expecting it at all. It's great to have two such different kids and I think it's better that way so they aren't competing in the same areas as such, but each doing different things, but in some ways it is like being a parent for the first time again LOL!

Wow what a great lil girl you've got there. Go Juliette!!!!
My one piece of advicewould be to avoid EBM if you can, because even though you may have a couple of crappy days and she may be unsettled its the best way to get your milk happening at the right times (but I know you know this just thought I'd share
)
I'm so glad everything is going so well, like I said you so deserve it
