Due Date Club July 2005:Bf

Hi all,
My daughter has already crossed an year. I feed her at night as i am working and she was fine with it. Now it has changed into something like she would sleep at night only if I bf her.
Earlier she used to get up once in between during her sleep and immediately go to sleep after her feed. But it has got worse now. She wakes up every 2 hours or so and insists that I feed her. It has affected my health a lot now. Once in a while I would not have cared, but now its getting more and more. She doesnt sleep at peace. Please let me know if you have encountered this and please help me if you have a solution to this.
I have tried giving her water, formula, carry her around and put her to sleep.. but nothing has worked.
She isnt teething or anything right now, and wasnt this disturbing when she was.
I am worried...Please help.

Regards,
Soumya.

Hi
Make sure that u dotn carry her much in the night ask somebody else to feed the formula and make her sleep,intially it is tough but they will learn,i followed the same thing,but u have to make urself hard bcos they will cry so much if you are nt carrying. if 1 week make practise then it wont be a problem.make sure that nighht she eats nicely before she goes to bed. main point is u dotn feed her in night ask somebody else to feed the formula in night

I think either she is not getting enough calories during the day or not enough attention. I think this is your baby's way to bond with you if you are busy during the day. Kids sometimes develop an insecurity so they would wake up frequently to check on the mom to see if she is there and demading bf is the way to get attention. Another possibility is that she isn't getting ennough calories during the day so making up at night. You never know what goes into their tiny minds.
Try to make her full during day, increase her feeds. She might also be thirsty as its summer time.

Hi all,

Thanks a lot for the reply. I think probably its her way of seeking attention only, as I stay out of home the whole day. But she eats well during the day, and we see to it that she is full.
Anways, I should start trying the way Manju says.

Love to little ones..
Soumya.

Breast pumps
I am using a medela pump to feed my baby when I am out. The medela breast pumps are really a good choice for the working moms. We can pump the milk regularly and can store it and use whenever needed.... - dalewhither [View Message]
evenflo elan breast pump
Buy this pump! It’s made my life so much easier. I always got sore with my old Medela Advanced, but that never happens with the Ameda Purely Yours Breast Pump. What really makes a difference is its ease of use. It’s really easy to switch between pumping phases and take apart to clean. Strongly recommend it for all mothers that pump daily.... - stellatylor [View Message]

As we discussed earlier in this forum I used magnetic alphabets , through which he has learnt alphabets within a week. And number within 4 days.
It is as like take the letter and stick to it where ever he goes more and ask him to search a particular letter. this worked very well for me.
all the best... - Manju [View Message]
