Tell me it gets easier...

If it makes you feel any better we’ve been awake for 6hrs feeding every 30 mins 🥲

We’ve also had a night like this. I forgot how hard the cluster feeding was. It is exhausting but with my first it did get better, so hopefully it does this time too 😩🤞

I've had 2 hours sleep a night for the first 9 days with my baby! And some days an hour nap if I'm lucky! He was constantly feeding and would only settle on me 🥱 Now we're on day 13 I'm starting to get 4 to 6 hours sleep in blocks of 2 to 3 hours and it's heaven lol .... I feel like I've had sleep deprivation torture for 10 days x

It definitely gets better. This is my second baby and first night at home when he did not let me put him down I was like omg what have I done. I forgot how intense cluster feeding is. It has been better since though every now and then they'll do it again to increase your supply.

It'll get better 😍 Have you tried a dummy, there is absolutely nothing wrong with them using the boob for comfort but early on it caused me so much nipple trauma! I was really anti the dummy but we now use it on odd occasions. We make sure first that he is clean nappy, and has plenty of food. It's really easy to miss feeding ques with the dummy. I did lots of skin to skin at the start too which did help with some of the comfort boobing!

My baby is the same! 5 days old and will only sleep on me or my partner at night! And constantly wants my boob, luckily I have started collecting enough milk for my partner to give her a bottle when i sleep for a few hours. I've just managed to get her to sleep in the pram though with the rockit 😍 I'm really hoping this gets better soon cos I'm absolutely dreading when my other half has to go back to work 😭

We was up every 45 mins last night to breastfeed, however nights prior we’ve got 4 hour stretches. Trying to remind myself nothing is permanent, it’ll get easier! X
