I am at my wit's end and am so frustrated... I'm hoping you bees can help.
My LO is 3 weeks old, so I know sleeping patterns are haphazard. We are EBF and she's been eating at 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. I feel like I don't get a break and we try to start going to bed at 9, bc she falls asleep. But we try to get her swaddled and then she's wide awake. And we try to get her settled and then she's ready to eat again. Repeat until midnight. We have made sure her diapers are clean, we've rocked, been in the swing, bathed...
During the day, she's the easiest - eat, sleep, change diapers, a little alert time. She eats a total of 10-14 times a day for about 3-4 hours total, each feed is averaging 15 minutes.
I'm exhausted at this point bc I can't figure out how to get her down at a decent hour. Is that pointless???
Any suggestions? Mom would like to get to bed before midnight...
