Why have you git an alarm set, Katie? Do you have to go to work?
Sounds like everyone's having a shocking night. E keeps waking up every hour screaming. I'm shattered. My OH has just left for the airport on a 2 day business trip, so I'll have ti cope on my own. I mean, he doesn't help at nights as he has to work the next day, but it's nice to know he's there if I need him.

Bleurgh. Hannah would not settle in her basket so by 1am I gave up and we've been cosleeping and feeding on and off all night. As last night was bad also I'm shattered.
I got antibiotics for the mastitis as,I had a temp but as it had gone by the time I got to docs he said to delay starting them in case it's on the mend already. The pain doesn't seem as bad so fx...

I'm exhausted!! I really hope she naps in the day today!!!

Horrible nights all round. Clare I really hope you've had some sleep now!

We're up again - I thought it was going fine - quick feed (we both fell asleep) into cot, still asleep. Then 10mins later, grizzles then crying. Now feeding again

 

[Becky1]

If I knew thus would only last till Friday I could cope - it's not knowing how long it will last the worries me ;-/

 

[umbongo]

Pain was awful last night and had high temp! Felt like hell. But got antibioticsfrom Dr and temp had dropped so not started them yet.... Pain a bit better. Got to keep feeding and expressing after to get all the milk out.

Meanwhile Hannah just fed for an hour.... Fx she sleeps in basket now... Bet she doesn't!!!

Not sure about the full moon theory. E's been a nightmare for ages now

Sounds like bad nights all around took Noah to bed at 9.30pm for feed but he wouldn't go down in his crib, so ended up in with me :-/ but then didn't wake until 3.40, had but if a feed which took until 5 but was still wriggling and whinging at 6 so ended back in with me until 8. Just needed some kip!

Umbongo I hope it clears up for you soon, I've heard that's horrible. Let's hope we have better nights tonight ladies!! X

 

[SaraLouise]

Our night wasn't so bad, just a little odd. He went down at 8.30, and was grunting & whinging til 10, then slept til 1. Went back down 2-7. So first bit of a night wasn't good, but got a good sleep after so can't complain x

 

[Becky1]

Best I got was 2 1/2hrs unbroken. Other half took him off to the spare room at 6 but they were back at 7.45 as he wanted feeding again :-/ quick feed them slept till 9. Overall I've had 6hrs which is good but I wish it wasn't so unbroken!

 

[Ammdaz]

Oh dear ladies, sounds like most of us were suffering last night

Bad night here too, we were up every 1-2 hours. Gave in at 3 and co slept so I could get some sleep. She was really sicky all night so I don't think that was helping bless her.

Fingers crossed for better nights all round tonight xxx

She did two hours in her basket finally.
Not sure about mastitis. She cluster fed like crazy Friday then not so much Saturday, I should have expressed but step daughters were there so I just didn't as routine was different. Pain definitely improved.

Does anyone else's LO have an annoying habit of scratching or grabbing your nipple? Yowch!!!!
