They do sleep through eventually - just don't limit 'eventually' to a specific time. DS's 'eventually' was only recently - and he's 2! He hasn't fed overnight for a long time now, but he still wakes.
DD is still feeding heaps overnight. She's a distracted feeder through the day tho, so she's probably catching up on feeds during the night. Last night was very tiring.. I suspect we're in for a growth spurt or something because it was more than normal.
DD is in a cot attached to our bed, so I'm not really waking up properly to feed.. I'm doing it in a half sleepy daze LOL. So sleep deprivation isn't hitting me too hard. If I had to get up to go to another room and sit there and feed, I'd probably struggle getting back to sleep.
I agree with Kelly that routines are very tempting during the rough patches. But they seem to be too much work for me LOL. I find it easier & quicker to ride it out. It does pass. It feels like forever in the middle of it, but goodness me, time flies by so quick, they're 2 before you know it! It's such a short time in their lives, try and keep at it where you can, and don't worry about when they will sleep through.
