okay ladies, talk to me..

Theo was sleeping 8/9 hours straight a night. Then he started waking probably... every 3ish. Now its turning into every 1... What is going on???

I try to keep him in his cot for as long as possible, but every night, i just give up and put him in bed with me, and he sucks away at the boob just all night long Now this is great, cause i still get some rest, but i'm never in a deep sleep, because i need to roll over etc, and can't cause he's there! I only like to put him on the outside, next to me, because i worry DH wont know he's there.

Don't know what to do. My mum is constantly on my back, telling me just to give him some formula. But I just really dont want to. Surely there is a way to get him to sleep without having to go down the formula road?? After i gave DD some formula for night sleeps (she was 7 months old), my supply dramatically decreased (sound familar alison? hehe). Hmmm

Well tonight i've going to try and give him more than a teaspoon of farex, see if that helps, but i'm assuming it wont.

I know he's not 'starving', clearly due to his weight. But maybe thats why he's waking so often? Because he has to have a slurp every hour to get something? He can't get a 'big' feed, then have a nice long sleep. Does that make sense?

Argh i'm so sleep deprived...

Shayna, have you found the formula is helping your DD with her sleep?

Listening to you guys talk about your routine is making me jealous 5 feeds a day? Really? I lose count of how many feeds we do here! I'm picking around 15...
