So ds 1 was born by emcs late on wed night he is obviously perfection personified and we're besotted!
I'm just after some tips on how to cope with tonight, last night on our own in hospital. Yesterday and today he fed well 3 times. Last night however he fed and cried and fed and cried the whole night. He just wouldn't settle without me. He's fine in the day and settles great for anyone but last night was totally the opp. A v kind midwife took him out it the room for an hour so the poor 3 other women having to share a ward with me could get an hours sleep at least.
He's just fed again and is doing the same thing. Falling asleep on the breast and not settling in his cot. I can pay him over my shoulder and cuddle him - is there anything I can do to get at least a couple of hrs sleep?!!
Ps - I know I'm asking the impossible - anyone with the right answer I'll patents it with you and we'll be rich beyond our wildest dreams!!
