Hi Girls!

Hi Kymmy - yay for Brit's room, put some pics up on FB so we can see.

Hi Ubba - you poor thing, I mentioned on FB to your response to try the top up. I know it's hard to not feel guilty but take it from me who has to do it mostly all day, you do what you have to. To be honest, with all my aqua friends and mothers group girls the only ones have problems with sleeping are those who are fully breast fed. I am wondering if at this age they just need more and some people haven't got enough to keep up? Of course some do. One of the ladies at swimming on Friday said her 5.5 month old still wakes every 1.5/2 hours at night for a BF, 5.5 months, that's ridiculous! It's so important to get your sleep, no-one is any use to anyone if they are fatigued all the time. Give the last feed as a top up and see how you go. I only do one breastfeed a day now, the rest is formula with expressing in between and that gets mixed into her last bottle - I'm over feeling guilty, I can't do any better than that and I figure some is better than none. In saying that, Amelia is sleeping 10 hours a night at the moment, I feel normal again. Give it a go mate and please don't feel guilty, you've done so well you really have. xx
