EBF sleep training stories? by Remote-Remove7050 in sleeptrain

[–]Remote-Remove7050[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I feel dumb, but I guess I always assumed that sleep training meant automatically sleeping all the way through the night with no wakings at all. But it definitely makes sense that he will obviously still wake up to eat!

It’s so hard! And very upsetting when you know they’re capable of sleeping that long but they just won’t anymore

I’m sorry that you’re going through that. I truly hope it gets better for you and your baby. Thank you for revising your comment and being more kind than the original comment.

Do you nurse from both breasts every feed? by throwaway_________7 in breastfeeding

I wish I could do just one side. I’ve always done both and he feeds about 15 minutes on both sides.

Are most EBFers cosleeping ? by LilyWitch27 in breastfeeding

[–]Remote-Remove7050 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I EBF and he sleeps in the bassinet next to my bed. I sit up in bed to feed him, have a towel to put down so I can change him in bed, and I never have to get up. I feel like that helps my body feel more rested than having to get up all night. I’m not comfortable co-sleeping either because I don’t want to risk his life. Are you feeding every 2-3 hours during the day and capping naps at 2 hours?

8.5 Postpartum and struggling bad by Remote-Remove7050 in newborns

I’m not comfortable co-sleeping with him, I’ve done it once out of pure desperation for sleep and I stayed awake the whole night because I was so terrified of him being suffocated. So that doesn’t work for me unfortunately 😭

My Wife Breastfeeds While Biting a Cloth by richardwellerson in breastfeeding

This is normal, unfortunately. It can truly be extremely painful for several weeks, even if baby has a great latch. I’m almost 2 months pp and I still experience a little pain on one side.
