don't know what to do. I'm about to quit breastfeeding. he wants to eat 24/7 won't sleep. tonight ive gotten 45 min of sleep. And he was up all day. I haven't slept more than 3 hrs a night since I've had him. I'd know he was eating if I gave him formula and that maybe he wouldn't want the bottle 24/7 kike he wants me

Have you tried pumping? You could pump bottles at night instead if nursing and you'd get more sleep. When I nursed my son at night I got no sleep and I started pumping bottles and I only had to get up 2-3 times to pump another bottle but each bottle for me would have about 3oz Znd they're good for 4-6 hrs at room temp so it worked nicely for me. Or you could supplement formula and just use it at night time? If you want to stop breastfeeding that's fine I'm not trying to pressure you I'm just pointing out a couple of options :)

it's hard in the beggining I went through it ... I didn't sleep more than 3 hrs either but it gets better ... after 6 weeks it gets better ... but if u feel like u don't want to I understand I felt like that a lot

If you haven't tried pumping I'd try that especially cause if you pump a bottle you can always put a little baby cereal in it to help fill him up...my daughter wanted to eat constantly before I started putting cereal in her bottles now she goes 2-4 hours during the day and 6-8 hours at night (she's a month old & started the long sleeping through the night at 4 weeks) since I exclusively pump I give breast milk with cereal all day long then at bedtime i supplement with a a formula bottle with cereal in it...whatever you choose to do is the right choice as long as he's getting fed & it works for yall but those are a couple options ...have faith in yourself mama ! Good luck 💕😘

I may try the pumping again for night time only. I'm just so tired. I dunno.. @chhaya @hayleymarie @princessz21
