Selfish one here...
We have had the night from hell. As if waking every 3 hours wasn't bad enough, last night it was 2 hourly until 3 then 1 hourly til 6I am exhausted, and at 4 I just bawled my eyes out for about an hour and bl@@dy Al just lies there with a "what do you want me to do" I could have killed him. I kow he has to work his 6 day in a row today but honestly - I have worked for 6 mths in a row with no break. I finally got up and fed her AGAIN to get some sleep, but I think it might be time for tough love. I can't keep doing this- I'm hating feeding her, I'm sleepwalking most nights early on because I have weird dreams about breastfeeding and get this, feeling trapped and for the sake of my mental health it has to be done. Now just to figure out how letting her cry(even when we hold her she screams knowing she won't get booby) will be better? I'm not sure but something's gotta give and my boobies are staying away at night.
Sorry for the vent ladies - arrrghhh sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy...![]()
