So how does the baby always know when I have something to do the next day? He will stay awake till all hours of the night the night before I have a doctors appointment. He's done this to me twice now. Last night he was wide awake until about 2 am and I had to be up and going at 7 this morning. I did get some household chores done but I don't want my nights to become my days!
He is still eating like crazy but now I think it has become a comforting thing for him. When he starts screaming after he's been nursing for 45mins I will put him back on and he will fall asleep in 5 mins. Or he will suck for over 1 hour and then spit up half of it. I'm afraid he will get a belly ache from over eating! We are still working on using the pacifier but I'm sure that's just contributing to his nipple confusion! I just can't win but I've stopped trying too hard and I'm just letting things happen as they happen. I'm still using the nipple shield but it is not hurting as bad as it had been.
