Awww Trish- I didn't realise K was waking 2 hourly overnight?! When did that start? I know you mentioned you'd had a few bad nights with him but I thought they were one offs? I know what you mean about broken sleep, its been 4 months since I've slept longer than 4.5 consecutive hours (well actually a lot longer when you think of the crappy sleep during prg!!) and it does take it's toll. I agree with the bigger babies probably being a bit more hungry, as you know L is still waking overnight for feeds. But like I said, unfortunately with DD introducing solids didn't make much difference probably until she was on 3 full meals a day and I just don't think L is ready for that yet when he's thriving on breast milk alone. But if you think it's going to help K then go for it!
Just remember hun, it's perfectly NORMAL for babies this age to wake at night for feeds (but I agree two hourly is a bit hectic!). I know it's probably hard for you because Joel did sleep through and it's a bit of a shock, but I promise you at this age more babies are probably waking than sleeping through. Thankfully it doesn't last forever! One day we will sleep again!!
