Mum question:Ive just recently stopped breastfeeding my 13 month - TopicsExpress



          

Mum question:Ive just recently stopped breastfeeding my 13 month old son at night time, he was waking every half hour to every two and half hours on a good night, to have a little feed before going back to sleep and although we bed share I have to hop up to feed him as he has a tongue tie that was never fixed 100% and its very painful to feed him laying down. This was all getting very exhausting. He still feeds 5 or 6 times a day. We night weaned in a very gradual and gentle way, only one night of any really grizzling and after a week he was sleeping through the night. The issue now is that although he sleeps well and isnt waking up lots he is waking and not going back to sleep very early, like 3:30-5am early, Im an early riser and have no problem starting my day early but 5am on a regular basis is where I draw the line. He ends up so grumpy all morning after such an early start. Iv tried rocking/cuddling him in the dark in bed, on the sofa, walking around with him in the carrier. Iv tried it all with the light on. My husband has tried the same. Iv tried giving a bottle of milk. Nothing seems to work:-/ any gentle ideas would be much appreciated, we will not leave him to cry.
