Cluster feeding

Anyone else back in the cluster feeding trenches? 😅 Had 3 days of false security. Getting 6/7 hrs broken sleep at night. Back to hourly feeds tonight 🥲

Omg please explain how long this phase lasts for. I am weak right about that now. 😭😭😭. Are you breast feeding or using formula. Would formula prevent cluster feeding because it is thicker? I am BF and the cluster feeding has left with me lifeless even though my mum is staying with me helping me. How are you navigating during this period? Also congratulations ❤️

I’m in the trenches with you. My newborn also doesn’t sleep in her crib so we have the addition of her only sleeping on us / in our arms which means little to no sleep at night. I am so delirious. EBF is so damn hard.

@Jen I’m breast feeding. Apparently they can still cluster feed on formula but I think it’s less common! Breastfeeding is so tough! My hubby is taking the first night shift but in reality only I can settle him at the moment. Hang in there ❤️

@Sana We had the same issue with not going down so we got a sleep safe nest and had to co sleep. It was a hugeeee life saver! We’ve also managed a couple of sleeps in the nest inside the next to me crib.

Same over here! Cluster feeding in the evening and doesn't want to sleep in the next to me 😐
